On Wednesday, February 14 at 9:00am (Japan Standard Time) / Tuesday, February 13 at 7:00pm (Eastern Time), please join the Indo-Pacific Security Initiative (IPSI) of the Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security, and the Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology Open Laboratory for Emergence Strategies (ROLES) of the University of Tokyo for a virtual seminar on the risks of simultaneous conflicts in the Indo-Pacific. 

As military threats from China and North Korea increase and diversify, this is raising the risk of simultaneous conflicts in the Indo-Pacific. An expert panel of speakers will share their thoughts on these risks, as well as the challenges for deterrence and responses. This conversation will particularly focus on the sensitive flashpoints of the Korean Peninsula and the Taiwan Strait.

Please join the webinar via this link and feel free to submit your questions for our speakers here.
