رحلة جو بايدن إلى منطقة المحيطين الهندي والهادئ

By Jordi Bou

May 18, 2023 - رحلة الرئيس الأميركي جو بايدن، التي تشمل ثلاث دول، سوف تهيمن عليها قضية قوة الصين المتزايدة في منطقة المحيطين الهندي والهادئ.

The U.S. president is scheduled to depart Washington for Hiroshima on May 17 to attend a meeting of the Group of Seven leaders.

On May 22 he is to continue to Sydney for the Quad Summit with a brief stop in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, to meet with Pacific Island Forum leaders.

The meetings have been billed as opportunities to deepen cooperation on regional challenges and advance U.S. strategic interests in countering China’s influence.

The three-country trip also presents the 80-year-old Biden, who recently announced he’s running for reelection, with the opportunity to demonstrate that he still has enough in the tank to handle the gruelling pace of the presidency.
