In this Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2013 photo, a China coast guard vessel numbered 2506, top, sails along the Japan coast guard ship Katori in the continuous zone of Japan's territorial waters off the disputed East China Sea islands called Senkaku in Japanese and Diaoyutai in Chinese. A big problem for China is its bad blood with virtually all of its neighbors, many of whom are key players in the search of missing Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777. China has territorial disputes with India, Japan, the Philippines and Vietnam, and many other countries in the region are wary of its efforts to exert more control over Pacific shipping lanes that could impact their freedom of trade.

FILE - This Jan. 2003 file photo provided by the U.S. Navy shows a P-3 Orion shortly after takeoff from Naval Air Station North Island, Calif. The U.S. Navy decided that long-range naval aircraft were a more efficient way to search for missing Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 in such a vast area, so will be relying on P-3 and P-8 planes, while the two destroyers go back to normal duties.

In this Thursday, March 13, 2014 photo provided by China's Xinhua News Agency, China's rescue ships sail different ways as they conduct a search operation for a missing Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777, flight MH370. China has the most at stake and has been taking an unusually high-profile role. Almost immediately after the plane disappeared, Beijing dispatched its largest-ever rescue flotilla to the initial search area in the South China Sea, which Beijing considers its own backyard.
