Immer stärker haben sich in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten Schwerpunkte der Weltwirtschaft und Geopolitik nach Asien und in die dynamische Region des Indo-Pazifiks verlagert. Der indo-pazifische Raum spielt bei der Bewältigung zentraler globaler Herausforderungen eine entscheidende Rolle, sei es Klimawandel, Rüstungskontrolle, Cybersicherheit oder die Entwicklung neuer Technologien. Gleichzeitig hat sich die Region zu einem Spannungsfeld territorialer Konflikte mit globalem Ausmaß entwickelt. Welche Auswirkungen haben Rivalitäten im südchinesischen Meer auf die globale Sicherheit? Auf welchen Interessen basiert das Engagement europäischer Akteure in der Region? Welche Erwartungen sind damit verbunden? Diese und weitere Fragen wurden während des 177. Bergedorfer Gesprächskreises diskutiert, der aus 35 hochrangigen Vertreter:innen aus Politik, Administration, Think Tanks und Wissenschaft bestand, sowohl aus der indo-pazifischen Region als auch aus Deutschland, Europa (EU sowie nicht-EU Staaten), China und den USA. Diana Huth spricht mit einer Expertin für Sicherheitspolitik, Lynn Kuok, die Munich Young Leader ist, am 177. Bergedorfer Gesprächskreis und am 10. Berliner Forum Außenpolitik teilgenommen hat. Sie ist Wissenschaftlerin, Dozentin und Analystin, die als Shangri-La Dialogue Senior Fellow for Asia-Pacific Security beim International Institute for Strategic Studies und als Gastprofessorin an der Georgetown University tätig ist.

What does AUKUS mean for Britain? The new pact between Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States has grabbed headlines because of French disgruntlement over it triggering a cancelled a submarine deal. But what does the agreement mean for Britain? To find out I spoke to Dr. Euan Graham, Senior Fellow for Asia-Pacific Security at the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) in Singapore for this week's #BritainDebrief for the Atlantic Council. Why did Australia choose to push for it? How has it been received in the region? And is there a chance Britain will be disappointed?

This week on the Sinica Podcast, Kaiser welcomes former Acting Assistant Secretary of State for East Asia and Pacific Affairs Susan Thornton to discuss a recently published audit of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue (S&ED), the annual set of high-level meetings with Chinese officials that were convened during the Obama administration by the U.S. Departments of State and the Treasury. The audit's two lead authors, representing the two organizations behind the audit, the National Committee on U.S. Foreign Policy and the American Friends Service Committee, also join the conversation. Rorry Daniels is the Deputy Project Director at the National Committee on American Foreign Policy's Forum on Asia-Pacific Security, where she organizes research and Track II discussions on security issues and conflict mediation in the Asia-Pacific. Daniel Jasper is the Public Education and Advocacy Coordinator, Asia, for the American Friends Service Committee, where his work focuses on China and North Korea. Susan, Rorry, and Dan make a strong case that, contrary to an emerging bipartisan consensus in Washington that engagement with China was a failure, the policy of engagement actually bore substantial fruit.6:12 – The SED and the S&ED — why the ampersand matters10:37 – The rationale behind the S&ED16:15 – In the room at the S&ED meetings30:12 – Critiques of the S&ED process36:47 – The mechanics of the S&ED audit44:13 – Five major accomplishments of the S&ED1:01:38 – Other surprising U.S. gains from the S&ED1:10:51 – How could the process be improved?A transcript of this interview is available on SupChina.com.

In this episode, Meia, Euan and Joseph discuss the tumultuous relationships between the US and the two Koreas under former president Donald Trump, as well as how these relationships might evolve as President Joe Biden settles into the White House. The US−South Korea relationship is ‘badly in need of repair', explains Euan, highlighting that there is a serious risk of strategic divergence in national-security interests between the two countries. The panel also explores the challenges facing Moon Jae-in's presidency in its remaining years, noting that balancing relations with the US and regional neighbours will require a coherent national strategy. Joseph gives an overview of recent developments in North Korea's submarine-launched ballistic-missile programme, explaining why Pyongyang's nuclear ambitions are worrying. The panel also considers the fragile state of the North Korean economy and the impact of COVID-19 on the country, how China views recent developments on the Korean Peninsula, and what to watch out for in 2021.Date of recording: 3 February 2021 Sounds Strategic is recorded and produced at the IISS in London.

Managing US-China nuclear risks: A guide for Australia

The US-China nuclear relationship is growing increasingly complex. In recent years, Beijing has continued to modernise and diversify its nuclear arsenal and Washington has made changes to its nuclear policy that could reinforce these trends. While there is still the relatively low risk of the use of nuclear weapons during a conflict between the two, that risk is rising as political tensions increase. Australia’s interests would be best served by an allied military strategy for balancing China that emphasises conventional capabilities, rather than relying on US nuclear weapons to deter the unlikely prospect of a first-use nuclear attack by China. To discuss these issues, the USSC hosted an event to launch Managing US-China nuclear risks: A guide for Australia, featuring its author, Fiona Cunningham, United States Studies Centre Non-Resident Fellow and Assistant Professor of Political Science and International Affairs at George Washington University; Euan Graham, Shangri-La Dialogue Senior Fellow for Asia-Pacific Security at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, David Santoro, Vice President and Director for Nuclear Policy Programs at Pacific Forum and Brendan Thomas-Noone, Research Fellow in the Foreign Policy and Defence Program at United States Studies Centre.

Dr. Kuok walks us through the key factors driving the ongoing deterioration in US-China relationship, what that means for the countries in Asia, various elements of tension in the South China Sea, recent developments in US-India relationship, and the narrowing window of options for the nations in South-East Asia. The hope is for a rules-based, multilateral order to deal with China-US frictions, but the danger is that a transactional and bilateral skirmish is deepening, with a wide array of fallout that affects all of us.     See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed US-China relations to their lowest point in decades. Deep differences over trade, foreign policy and values have been sharpened amid increasingly hostile rhetoric. What is driving these developments and do they signal the dawn of a new Cold War? How is the pandemic and China’s “wolf warrior” diplomacy shaping the geopolitical contest in Asia? What impact are US and Chinese actions and rivalry having on other countries in the Indo-Pacific? And how should Australia best advance its interests amid deteriorating US-China ties, growing strategic competition and a polarising response to the call for an independent inquiry into COVID-19?

Over the past decade the hotly disputed South China Sea has become increasingly used as example of the rising strategic competition between the People’s Republic of China and the United States. Overlapping territory claims and maritime jurisdiction, strategic control over maritime domain, and differences in legal interpretations of freedom of navigation combine in a broader contest that affects multiple countries in Southeast Asia as they defend their maritime entitlements. Even regional non-claimant states such as Australia, Japan, India and South Korea claim stakes in the South China Sea, reflecting concerns about the shifting regional order and China’s intentions in the maritime domain. How do these different countries approach the South China Sea disputes? How are concepts around sovereignty, history and the law of the sea used and abused in foreign policy discussions and discourses? And what capacity is there for the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) – the so-called Constitution for the Oceans – to resolve these complex problems?

Amid growing tensions over territorial disputes and increasingly confrontational security postures, Chinese leaders have been advocating for a new Asia Pacific security architecture. What exactly is this architecture? Does it symbolise China’s growing ambition for regional hegemony? Or is it ultimately a response to America’s rebalance to Asia? What is China’s vision of such an architecture and how is China going to achieve it? What does this mean for US-China relations?
