Sažetak
In the last thirty years China has had incredible economic growth that is unprecedented in the world history. Continued economic growth has led to the fact that China is becoming increasingly dependent on sea lines of communication through which the majority of economic products are exported, and most raw materials and energy are imported. The disintegration of the Soviet Union and, therefore, the disappearance of the major external military threats, has led in new geopolitical circumstances to rapid development of the China’s Navy, which is slowly transforming from a regional to a global naval force which the main task will be protection of China’s global economic and national interests, and sea lines of communication vital to attaining the status of world power.
