China is building an influence ecosystem in the Black Sea region—often through ties with Russia—deepening leverage and shaping regional alignments using infrastructure, trade, and political ties.

I believe that was the idea.
This is worth considering: if DDG 164's heading had been a little more to the right, instead of colliding with their fellow PRC vessel they might have cut the BRP patrol vessel in half—with likely loss of life.

It takes one miscommunication, one wrongly interpreted signal, one nervous Captain -either American or PLAN- and things can turn very ugly.

I don't know about the "technicalities" regarding this process, certainly experts such as @alessionaval and @AlexLuck9 know more. But from my point of view, this has more to do with a geostrategic reasoning.
Meet Mogami ⚓🇯🇵. Japan’s upgraded Mogami-class frigate has been selected as the preferred platform for the @Australian_Navy’s general purpose frigates. Defence will now enter into the next stage of the procurement process with MHI and Japan. The upgraded Mogami can be

Comentarios a la posible adquisición de 11 fragatas clase Mogami, japonesas, para Australia: 1. Sería un GRAN HITO para Tokio lograr un contrato de esa magnitud; 2. Australia enviaría una señal geoestratégica inequívoca: junto a Japón, son la primera contención marítima a China.

En palabras de Brzezinski, India es un “pivote geopolítico”. Lo de los aranceles indiscriminados de EEUU contra los indios podrían empujar más a esa nación a la órbita geoestratégica de China. No me parece una acción muy adecuada.

No hay que escatimar lo que se ha logrado frente a EEUU. Dada nuestra posición geopolítica frente a ellos (asimetría) y con un rebalance de la política exterior de Washington hacia un Neo-mercantilismo realista, lo acordado ayer no es poca cosa. Veremos qué sigue.
