Piracy in Gulf of Eden and China

Pirates have stepped up attacks on merchant vessels in the Gulf of Aden, increasing insurance costs for ship owners and raising the specter of military intervention in one of the world's most important sea lanes. The waterway lies between Yemen and Somalia, and connects the Red Sea with the Indian Ocean. It is an important energy corridor. The surge in piracy has suddenly turned it into one of the most dangerous passages in the world for sea captains. 


China doing anti piracy patrols in Gulf of Eden may be a threat to India.
