Join us for a special event featuring international policy specialist Dr. Narushige Michishita, executive vice president of the National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies, as he discusses the current multi-faceted security policy of Japan. With the introduction of three security policy documents in December 2022, Japan committed to strive to maintain peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait. To achieve that goal, it has started to acquire the necessary capabilities, further strengthen the US-Japan alliance, and build partnerships with countries in the Indo-Pacific region. However, China will likely take steps to undermine the effectiveness of Japan’s effort. Dr. Michishita will discuss the security environment in Indo-Pacific, Japan’s new security strategy, and what the United States and Japan should do to deal with emerging security challenges.
