THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INDO-PACIFIC: A STUDY OF THE GEOPOLITICAL EFFECTS ON CHINA AND INDIA

Abstract

The Indo-Pacific region is currently a catchphrase that various nations use to describe their outlooks or visions of the future. India will need to manage its ties with China and Japan if it hopes to achieve its goal of a stable Indo-Pacific. The centres of the world’s economic growth have shifted to Asia, first to the Asia-Pacific region and then to the Indo-Pacific region, which includes South Asia. One could argue that the more expansive Indo-Pacific definition of Asia and the Asia-Pacifi prefer the natural evolution of commerce, investment, and energy flows over the more restrictive boundaries. The significance of the Indo-Pacific area is the study’s main topic. The majority of these problems are geopolitical in nature, like domination in the area. We mostly relied on secondary data for this analysis, which we acquired from a variety of books, journals, reliable internet sources, academic literatures, and websites. The report attempts to outline ways to reduce the strategic issues that India is now facing. This study will be beneficial to academics, decision-makers in foreign policy, security, and border influence strategy.
