Asia's security landscape is shaped by a mix of territorial disputes, military rivalries, economic competition, and non-traditional threats such as terrorism. The region is home to major powers like China, India, Japan, and Russia, as well as U.S. allies such as South Korea and Australia, making it a highly complex security environment. China’s growing military capabilities, territorial claims in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait, and border clashes with India in the Himalayas contribute to regional tensions.
North Korea’s missile tests and nuclear development pose a direct threat to South Korea, Japan, and the broader region. Russia's war in Ukraine has drawn military ressources from Asia.
This panel focuses on Asia’s security fragility due to rising geopolitical tensions while regional diplomacy, military alliances, and economic partnerships play crucial roles in maintaining stability and preventing conflicts.
