| Summary/Abstract |
The content of the new Asian doctrine of US President Donald Tramp and his plans to form a "Quad" is the first step toward creating a new type of military bloc for Asia in order to contain China. This topic is highly relevant because of the changing situation in the wider region where Russia has its own major economic and geostrategic interests. The plans to form the Quad directly threaten the marginalization of ASEAN and the end of the Association's leading role in resolving regional issues.
