                           embarrassing moment for india

India said on Friday it has fought the U.S. choice to direct a watch in the Indian Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in the western Indian Ocean, dismissing the U.S's. guarantee that its homegrown sea law was disregarding global law. 

Safeguarding its activities, the Pentagon said it was in consistence with the global law. "I can disclose to you that the USS John Paul Jones, a Navy destroyer, stated navigational rights and opportunities nearby the Republic of the Maldives by leading honest section through its regional ocean in typical tasks inside its selective monetary zone without mentioning earlier consent," Pentagon representative John Kirby told journalists on Friday. 

"That is predictable with worldwide law. Once more, we keep on keeping up the right, without a doubt the duty, to fly, sail, and work as per global law," Mr. Kirby said because of an inquiry from columnists at a Pentagon news meeting. 

U.S. issues explanation

Prior, in an uncommon and surprising public articulation, the U.S. Naval force reported that its boat the USS John Paul Jones had completed Freedom of Navigation Operation (FONOP) in the Indian EEZ, adding that its tasks had "tested" what the U.S. called India's "unnecessary oceanic cases." 

"USS John Paul Jones attested navigational rights and opportunities roughly 130 nautical miles west of the Lakshadweep Islands, inside India's restrictive financial zone, without mentioning India's earlier assent, predictable with global law," the U.S. Naval force's seventh armada said in an explanation on April 7. "India needs earlier assent for military activities or moves in its elite monetary zone or mainland rack, a case conflicting with global law." 

This FONOP maintained the rights, opportunities, and legal employments of the ocean perceived in global law by testing India's unnecessary sea asserts, the assertion said. 

"We lead normal and standard FONOPs, as we have done before and will proceed to later on. FONOPs are not around one country, nor are they about offering political expressions," it added.
