No pandemic would stop the United
States of America (USA) in flexing its muscles over the Western Pacific as it has announced that the United
States Coast Guard (USCG) is homeporting Sentinel-class cutters, also known
as Fast Response Cutter
“The People’s Republic of China’s
illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing, and harassment of vessels
operating in the exclusive economic zones of other countries in the
Indo-Pacific, threatens our sovereignty, as well as the sovereignty of our
Pacific neighbors and endangers regional stability. Efforts of the United
States Government, including the United States Coast Guard (USCG) are critical
to countering these destabilizing and malign actions,” US National Security
Advisor Robert C. O’Brien said in a statement.

the USCG “continues to modernize
and enhance the capabilities of its fleet of major cutters, which play a
prominent role in protecting our vital national interests, and where
appropriate, those of our partners in the region”
“To that end, the USCG is
strategically homeporting significantly enhanced Fast Response Cutters, built
in a proven Louisiana-based shipyard, in the western Pacific. The new
generation of Fast Response Cutters will conduct maritime security missions,
such as fisheries patrols, enhance maritime domain awareness and enforcement
efforts in collaboration with regional partners who have limited offshore
surveillance and enforcement capacity, and ensure freedom of navigation,” he
said.
“Enhancing the presence of the
USCG in the Indo-Pacific ensures the United States will remain the maritime
partner of choice in the region,” he added.
O’brien also said that “in Fiscal
Year 2021, the USCG plans to evaluate the feasibility of basing Fast Response
Cutters in American Samoa. If the survey is favorable, the United States
could further expand its presence in the South Pacific.”
