INS Trishul arrived at the port of Civitavecchia in which country?
- A.Spain
- B.Italy
- C.Greece
- D.France
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Italy. Civitavecchia is an Italian port, and the Indian Naval Ship Trishul arrived there in the course of its ongoing operational deployment to the Mediterranean Sea. Before entering harbour the ship held a Passage Exercise with the Italian Naval Ship Carlo Margottini, and the port call was described as underlining the enduring maritime partnership between India and that country, as well as the commitment of both navies to closer professional links and operational cooperation. Options A, C and D are wrong because, although Spain, Greece and France all have coastlines on the Mediterranean, none of them was the host of this visit and none of their navies took part in the exercise. Aspirants should remember the pairing of the ship, the port and the partner vessel together, since questions on naval diplomacy usually test exactly that combination.
