After taking stock of<br \/>\nthe Alliance&#x2019;s accomplishments over the previous<br \/>\ndecades, Pence ventured on the emerging challenges<br \/>\nand touched on an unexpected subject, the Indo-Pacific<br \/>\nregion: &#x201C;By working together, we can maintain<br \/>\na free and open Indo-Pacific where independent nations<br \/>\nboldly pursue their own interests&#x201D;. <\/i><a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\" title=\"\" class=\"sup\" >1<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\"><i>Although the Indo-Pacific has by now become<br \/>\na central feature of policy discussions in the US, it<br \/>\nhas been relatively absent from talks within NATO<br \/>\ncircles, as the issue is perceived as a matter lying<br \/>\noutside the organization&#x2019;s mandate. But security developments<br \/>\nin this region do matter for its member<br \/>\ncountries. Moreover, there are ways the organization<br \/>\ncould play a significant role in the Indo-Pacific without<br \/>\ncompromising its pre-existing priorities. Against<br \/>\nthat backdrop, this Policy Brief aims to contribute to<br \/>\nthe emerging discussion on NATO&#x2019;s engagement in<br \/>\nthe Indo-Pacific by first providing an appraisal of the policy implications of the US strategy towards the<br \/>\nregion, and then identifying realistic expectations for<br \/>\na NATO engagement in the Indo-Pacific<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">\n<div id=\"edn0\">\n<p>\n<sup>*<\/sup><span class=\"np\"><a href=\"#_ednref0\" name=\"_edn0\" class=\"Subs\" >(back)<\/a><\/span> Associate professor in strategic studies at the UAE National Defense College.<br \/>\n<br \/>The views expressed in this NDC Policy Brief are the responsibility of the<br \/>\nauthor and do not necessarily reflect the<br \/>\nopinions of the NATO Defense College or NATO.<\/p>\n<p><sup>1<\/sup><span class=\"np\"><a href=\"#_ednref1\" name=\"_edn1\" class=\"Subs\" >(back)<\/a><\/span> Remarks by Vice President Pence, &#x201C;NATO engages: the Alliance at<br \/>\n70&#x201D;, Washington, DC, 3 April 2019.\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\"><a href='\/fr\/download\/downloads.php\/?icode=611' target='_blank' title=\"click to download (pdf)\"><br \/>\nDownload the publication<\/a> to keep reading.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\"><span class='np'><a href='\/fr\/research\/research.php\/?icode=6' target='_blank'>More Research Division Publications&#8230;<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>NDC Public Affairs Office<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NDC Policy Brief 21-19: What NATO contribution to the security architecture of the Indo-Pacific?, by Jean-Loup Samaan*.
