U.S.I. Journal: Indian’s Oldest Journal on Defence AffairsSummary: The Indian Ocean Region (IOR) is a significant maritime zone. It is bordered by the coastal countries of three major continents: Asia, Africa, and Australia. The region holds strategic, economic, and geopolitical importance due to its vast expanse, rich natural resources, crucial trade routes and the presence of populous and economically active nations. It is bounded by over 35 countries. The IOR is a vital maritime trade route, encompassing world’s busiest and most important sea lanes. The Indian Ocean contains significant oil and gas reserves. Major powers, including India, China, the United States, and various European nations, have interests in the region due to its strategic location and resources leading to increased naval activities, defence partnerships, and geopolitical competition. The Indian Ocean is also prone to natural disasters such as tsunamis and cyclones. Coordination and preparedness for disaster management are crucial in the region.- Reproduced
