The Franco-German Observatory invites every month a speaker from the Indo-Pacific region to present the vision, or visions, that key actors in the region – from policymakers, military strategists, to businesspeople – seek to promote. The presentations will be designed, first, to understand how the “Indo Pacific” is locally conceived as a region and/or a geostrategic construct and what place China takes therein. Second, questions of economic dependence and independence will be a focus of particular attention, encompassing not only trade and investment links but, also, industrial cooperation and the building of infrastructure. Finally, the Franco-German Observatory will seek to tease out the expectations in the countries of the Indo-Pacific towards the “West.” To what extent do actors in the Indo-Pacific seek involvement from the US and from Europe? And what form should this involvement take
