Series Title: The Indo-Pacific and the Arctic: Opportunities and Challenges for US Partners
April 16, 2024 2-2:45 pm public event, followed by 2:45-3:30 expert dialogue
Event title: Breaking New Ice: US Indo-Pacific Partners and the Arctic
Speakers: Dr. Rebecca Pincus, Director, Polar Institute, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, and Sherri Goodman, Senior Fellow, Polar Institute and Environmental Change & Security Program, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars
The US Indo-Pacific Strategy aims to develop coalitions that pursue common goals outside the region as well as within it. Although the US Arctic Strategy prioritizes cooperation with Arctic allies in sustainable resource development and governance, US Indo-Pacific partners (Japan, South Korea, India, and Singapore) also share these goals as well as our concern over deepening Sino-Russian collaboration in Arctic resource governance and trade. The first dialogue in our series examines perspectives from two US scholars and former officials on the potential role for US Indo-Pacific partners in the governance of resources and trade in the Arctic. The speakers will explore the potential for greater cooperation with these partners in the North Pacific Arctic and they will discuss the possible impact of such collaboration on Arctic resource and trade governance.
As more nations eye the Arctic as a strategic resource, what is the U.S. military’s plan?
