A free and open Indo-Pacific that is in accordance with international law has been at the primacy of United States’ diplomatic policy in upholding peace and stability.
“When we talk about a “free and open Indo–Pacific,” we’re talking about a region that is free from coercion from other countries, open to trade and investment, and governed by international law. This means fishers can earn their livelihoods in traditional fishing grounds without harassment,” Ambassador Carlson said.
The US Ambassador expressed support for the international law in governing choices and decision-making of countries, even in the midst of disputes. “When the United States sees our partners being bullied in their backyard, we speak up. And we encourage others to speak up as well – and they are doing so. The chorus against threats to peace and stability in the South China Sea is growing louder and stronger each day,” she stressed.
