As part of the Integrated Review published earlier this year, the UK formalised its tilt to the Indo-Pacific.

This discussion looked at how the UK should maintain its interests and deepen its engagement with the region. What can it realistically seek to achieve and which relationships should it be prioritising? And what has it achieved so far?

Join our panel discussion with Claire Coutinho, Michael Auslin and Sophia Gaston for insight and analysis from three expert speakers into one of the generational changes in British foreign policy.
