India, like China and the United Arab Emirates, have helped equip the Seychelles Coast Guard with patrol vessels.^{[1][2][3][4][5]} India, China, and the UAE helped equip the tiny Seychelles with these patrol vessels due to its strategic location, very near the area off the Horn of Africa that is notorious for pirate attacks.
