Episode 2: Disruption, Division, Competition: What Shapes Security in the Indo-Pacific?

This captivating webinar series features insightful discussions with distinguished individuals on comprehensive security issues affecting the Indo-Pacific region and beyond. This series delves into the complexities of global security, exploring various facets that shape the current geopolitical landscape.

Maritime power in the Indo-Pacific hinges on shipyards as much as strategy. The episode with the Korea Institute for Maritime Strategy (KIMS) explores China’s naval expansion, South Korea’s shipbuilding leadership, and opportunities for U.S. cooperation with allies.
