Great power competition in the Pacific Islands: Can the United States catch up with China?

China is on the move in the islands of the Pacific, posing a big geopolitical challenge for the incoming Trump administration. On January 28th, Kathryn Paik of the Center for Strategic and International Studies and Daniel Stoian of the Department of State joined us for a discussion on the strategic and diplomatic importance of US involvement in the Pacific Islands to counter China as a rising power. Our speakers covered both the historical context behind US involvement in the region, the importance of political involvement today, and the often overlooked logistical difficulty of maintaining a physical presence in the Pacific.
