NOTE: Episode 98 is a follow-up of episode 97, so I kindly request you to first listen to episode 97 to connect with our discussion in episode 98.

In this episode, we discuss one of the most critical regions shaping the future of global stability. As the Indo-Pacific emerges as a central hub for international trade, military alliances, and geopolitical maneuvering, we explore how nations within the region are influencing global peace and security. From maritime security and freedom of navigation to the strategic interests of major powers like the US, China, India, and Japan, we analyze the complex dynamics at play. Join us as we unpack the region's evolving role in fostering cooperation, mitigating conflicts, and addressing pressing challenges such as territorial disputes and power competition.

Questions covered in this episode:

1. In what ways has China's Belt and Road Initiative impacted the Indo-Pacific's political and economic landscape?
2. What is the role of regional alliances and partnerships, like the Quad and AUKUS, in maintaining peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific?
3. How is climate change affecting security and geopolitical stability in the Indo-Pacific, particularly in vulnerable island nations?
4. What are the potential flashpoints in the Indo-Pacific that could trigger wider conflicts, and how can they be mitigated?
5. How do global institutions like the United Nations and international law shape the resolution of disputes and conflicts in the Indo-Pacific?
6. What message would you like to give to the researchers, students, and experts working in the international affairs and security domain?
