The Policymakers Series — Dr. Ely Ratner with Mark Wu: U.S.-China Competition in the Indo-Pacific

Ely Ratner, former Assistant Secretary of Defense for Indo-Pacific Security Affairs, joins our Policymakers series for a discussion with Fairbank Center Director Mark Wu. Ratner argues that the central question is not “who will win” but whether the region’s future will reflect China’s preferred vision or that of the United States. He highlights Beijing’s goal of reunification with Taiwan and its broader effort to reduce the U.S. security role in the region.
