Join us for a discussion of Dr. Aditi Malhotra’s new book India in the Indo-Pacific: Understanding India’s Security Orientation Towards Southeast and East Asia. This conversation will explore the drivers of India’s growing strategic role in the Indo-Pacific over the past two decades and how this behavior has been shaped by Delhi’s relations with the United States, China, Japan, Vietnam and others. With remarks from Indo-Pacific scholars Dr. Harsh Pant and Dr. Walter Ladwig, the panel will also consider prospects for greater Indian maritime engagement in the region as well as any constraints that may be at play.
