ABSTRACT

United States Department of Defense announced the Asia-Pacific Maritime Security Strategy in 2015. This report outlines the Department of Defense’s strategy with regard to maritime security in the Asia-Pacific region. Recognizing the importance of the Asia-Pacific region and its maritime domain for the security of the United States, the Department is focused on safeguarding freedom of the seas, deterring conflict and coercion, and promoting adherence to international law and standards. This paper examines four lines of effort that the Department is employing in order to preserve security in this vital region. ① Strengthening military capacity to ensure the United States can successfully deter conflict and coercion. ② Working together with our allies and partners from Northeast Asia to the Indian Ocean to build their capacity to address potential challenges in their waters and across the region ③ Leveraging military diplomacy to build greater transparency and to reduce the risk of conflict ④ Working to strengthen regional security institutions and to encourage the development of an open and effective regional security architecture. Through these contents, this paper presents effects(① Conflict ② Cooperation) of the Asia-Pacific Maritime Security Strategy. The effects are as follows: ① Conflict(Escalating the conflicts between U.S. and China, Developing the Missile technology in China) ② Cooperation(Decreasing the possibility of an armed conflict between the U.S and China, Consolidation of the U.S.-Southeast Asian countries relations.)
