Spain “Eurasian Review” article on December 7 network, the original question: People’s Liberation Army and China’s peaceful development in recent years, for the international community that China’s “peaceful development” sincerity, Beijing has taken great pains. For example, China in September issued a special about “peaceful development” of the White Paper, saying that China’s initiative to make a strategic choice, Beijing wants the world to believe that the Chinese are serious about. So, how the Chinese navy into all this?

because the Navy has a flexible, adaptable and wide range of features, making it ideal as the country’s foreign policy implementation tool. History is littered with precedent, such as the Anglo-American had with its own navy advance their own political objectives. PLA Navy may also act as a similar role in promoting China’s great power status.

positioned in accordance with Navy tradition, it can be a high diplomatic means. Today, very few of these occasions, but the Navy has many opportunities to participate in non-traditional activities, while helping to shape the image of a friendly country, on the other equipment for the military build-up and modernization legitimate excuse.

Beijing emphasized the military importance of participation in non-traditional action, which for the People’s Liberation Army (especially the Navy) to find a near-perfect modern reason. 2008 “China’s defense white paper” for the first time stated that China is now as “non-war military operations” as an important form of military deployment. Since December 2008, the PLA Navy’s ongoing anti-piracy in the Gulf of Aden, patrolling, which is “non-war military operations” the most significant examples.

2010 August, the Chinese navy “Peace Ark” hospital ship went to the Indian Ocean, visited Djibouti, Kenya, Seychelles and Bangladesh port for local people to provide free diagnosis and treatment services. White Paper on the Declaration and other than the statement, the effect of such activities is clearly better, they spread China’s “peaceful development” of information for Beijing’s international image lot of extra points.

China is already recognized by the Navy show friendliness to improve the international image of the great benefits. In September, the “Peace Ark” is once again voyage Cuba, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago and other Latin American countries. Stressed that the Chinese military, which show the friendly relations with Latin America and the People’s Liberation Army publicity peaceful, civilized image of great significance. For the above remarks, the international community needs to be addressed.

the Chinese Navy to build non-traditional military operations, we can learn important lessons. Put so much strength, resources and international relations, capital of Beijing has a long-term benefits, the PLA Navy’s multinational action will also be training environment, to gain experience. Can be inferred that the Chinese navy military operations other than war — as a win-win solution not only to promote military modernization, but also create a friendly image of the country.
