Shangri -La Dialogue , referred to as the Xianghui).
On the other hand, the rise in mainland China in Taiwan, /A> Territory disputes and other issues are becoming tougher, which has also prompted some countries in the Asia -Pacific region to seek security guarantee.For example, after the Philippine President President Macos took office, Manila relied on western countries to use the deterrence of the United States, Japan, and Australia to enhance in the South China Sea.
This gives the United States and its Western allies a good reason to increase activities in this area.The US Secretary of Defense Austin shows at the Xianghui on Saturday (June 3) that the United States must cooperate with allies to ensure the security, openness and freedom of the Indo -Pacific region, and ensure that trade is unobstructed.
However, before the opening of the Xianghui, the Chinese PLA's J-16 fighter aircraft intercepted the US military RC-135 reconnaissance aircraft in the South China Sea. The United States and Canadian warships were tricked with the Chinese warships in the Taiwan Strait.At the incense meeting, China and the United States made words for this.The conflict between China and the United States has become a risk explosion in the region.
As the Asia-Pacific security situation changes, some countries have found sensitively that NATO The pattern seems to be transplanted to Asia.NATO will set up an office in Tokyo, Japan in July this year, becoming one of the topics that the representatives of the Xianghui China continuously questioned this year.
Zhao Xiaozhuo Zhao Xiaozhuo, deputy director of the China -US Defense Research Center of the Chinese PLA Academy of Military Sciences, questioned the role of NATO to Estonian Prime Minister Karas in one of the venues.Zhao Xiaozhuo believes that NATO is involved in the Asia -Pacific region and will only create splitting and instability like Europe in this region.
Callas believes that Estonia can now maintain freedom and independence because of NATO's protective umbrella.Estonia has always determined that Russia is a threat of the country, one of the strongest NATO member states for Russia, and one of the most agreed members of NATO.
Estonia was first invited to participate in the Xianghui, Lithuania, Portugal, Sweden and Ukraine also participated for the first time.This shows that the spillover effect of the Russian and Ukraine War has led more European countries to pay attention to the security issues of the Asia -Pacific region and also strive to exert their influence.
The security environment of the International, especially the Asia -Pacific region, has changed, forcing experts, scholars and leaders to rethink what is security?Where is the scope of safety?How to deal with changes in the security environment?Faced with frequent recruitment in China and the United States and other regions, does the Asia -Pacific region need a new international security framework or even security alliance?If the answer is no, then what is the alternative choice?
The safety of the Asia -Pacific region and freedom of navigation are related to the world. The countries inside and outside the region are all stakeholders.Discuss and negotiate to find the most suitable solution.This is also the meaning of the Shangri -La dialogue -dialogue.
In this process, the open and inclusive Asianan can become a central force.This area with Asia's Danian as the core platform, such as the summit of Asianan and the dialogue partner country, the ADMM-Plus meeting (ADMM-Plus), etc., will also play a more important role in the future.
