| Summary/Abstract |
In 2017 US President Donald Trump announced the Free and Open Indo-Pacific (FOIP) strategy to replace the “rebalance” strategy of the predecessor Obama administration. After nearly four years in implementation, the question is, can strategy be continued under the incumbent President Joe Biden? The article carries out an analysis of a number of influencing factors and gives three distinct possible scenarios for US Strategy in the coming times which range from cooperation, ambivalence, and competition. The authors argue that this strategy will be maintained despite some changes in accordance with the domestic and foreign direction of the new Administration.
