  • "This report argues cuts in defense spending and domestic priorities are likely to lead to a less militarily assertive role for the US in the Asia-Pacific and a rebalancing of strategic relationships. President Barack Obama's November 2011 announcement of the rebalancing of the United States to the Asia-Pacific made clear his intention that America would sustain its leading role in the region. However, what is less clear is how America's allies and partners in the region see their own security interests changing and, given this, how they see the United States fitting into this new security framework. It is vital that both the demand for security (from Asia) and its supply (by the United States) are better understood in order to achieve a new status quo that meets the needs of all the players. This report considers six US allies or partners in Asia (Australia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Singapore and South Korea) and asks how they perceive their security interests and emerging threats, and, consequently, how they are addressing them through domestic capabilities and regional or plurilateral groups, and what role this suggests for the United States."
