KEI is pleased to hold a program titled, Recalibration in the Indo-Pacific: Perspectives from the Region. President Donald Trump’s return to the White House and ongoing U.S.-China strategic competition raises critical questions for U.S. allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific, including: Will narrowing strategic space between the United States and China force regional states into increasingly challenging foreign policy dilemmas? Alternatively, will regional states assert agency and seek greater autonomy? To what degree are we already in a multipolar international order and, if so, what affect will an intensifying U.S.-China competition have on that order?

Please come join KEI’s program with regional experts, which offers a two-part panel discussion featuring South Korea, Japan, Australia, Vietnam, and Singapore’s perspectives on these and other important questions facing the region. The panelists’ research will be featured in the spring/summer 2025 issue of KEI’s flagship journal, Korea Policy, due to be published in digital format in early June.
