Language | ENG |
Author | Kistanov, Valery |
Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article analyzes Japan's policy in the basin of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The term "Indo-Pacific Region" is more often used in scientific circles and mass media now instead of Asia-Pacific Region, which reflects the radical economic and political shifts in the basin of the two oceans. The Indo-Pacific strategy of Premier of Japan Shinzo Abe has an aim to contain the growing economic and military might of China - the main geopolitical rival of Japan in Asia. However, the implementation of this strategy faces difficulties. |
