What does the future of maritime security look like in the Indian Ocean?
This session features an in-depth discussion on the recently published book, “American Maritime Strategy in the Indian Ocean: Dominance, Diffusion, Adaptation” by Vivek Mishra. This conversation explores the evolution of U.S. maritime strategy, moving from a period of unilateral dominance to a more diffused, adaptive approach defined by regional partnerships and shifting power balances. As China’s presence grows and the Indo-Pacific order enters a new era, our panel of experts analyzes what these changes mean for regional security and India’s strategic roadmap for the coming decades.
