Development Trends and Impact Analysis of Militarization in Global Deep-Sea Regions
With the rapid development of deep-sea technology and equipment,the intensification of deep-sea resource competition,the lag of deep-sea military control mechanisms,and the need for comprehensive management of the ocean and potential sea battles,major military powers are accelerating the construction of deep-sea combat systems,attempting to turn most of the deep-sea areas from a public domain state into a new one-dimensional battlefield,in order to seek control over deep-sea areas,which will accelerate the de-velopment of militarization in the global deep-sea region.The acceleration of militarization in global deep-sea region will in turn promote a leap in deep-sea technology,thereby driving the improvement of national ocean military strength and comprehensive national strength,and expanding the space for national develop-ment.At the same time,this acceleration will intensify the deep-sea arms race,violating the basic princi-ples and spirit of international ocean peaceful utilization,and greatly increasing the risk of major powers'war.However,due to the significant investment in the development of deep-sea militarization,the potential risks from widespread application of artificial intelligence technology and the harsh geographical and fragile ecological environment of the deep-sea will also pose constraints and challenges to the accelerated develop-ment of deep-sea militarization.
