Voice for CHOICE #44: Indo-Pacific Series: The Role of the EU with Abigaël Vasselier

The EU aims to promote a free and open Indo-Pacific through enhanced cooperation with regional partners like Japan, India, and ASEAN. Moreover, it has become increasingly clear that Europe and Asia are not separate theatres but are deeply intertwined.
