LIVE: China's Maritime Threat: "Hidden" Chinese Ship Spying On India? | Xi Jinping | Palki Sharma | N18G
A Chinese vessel remained "hidden" in the Bay of Bengal for several days near Indian waters, according to a French maritime intelligence firm. The ship reportedly switched off its Automatic Identification System (AIS) to avoid detection. The company revealed that the vessel was mapping the seafloor and identifying submarine corridors. India's Navy and Coast Guard have been closely monitoring maritime traffic in the region and have repeatedly flagged the presence of Chinese research ships in recent years. So, what is China's endgame? What's at stake for India? And how should New Delhi respond? On Vantage tonight, Palki Sharma breaks down the big questions.
