Abstract :
An essential element of U.S. foreign policy strategy is an active presence in Asia. China’s economic strengthening and the American–Chinese trade war have also given America a greater emphasis on projecting military forces into the region. One key element of this is the establishment of the United States Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM). In this article, I detail the reasons for setting up the headquarters, its task and its area ofresponsibility. I describe the military factors that affect U.S.–China foreign policy relations.
