Five years ago, an arbitration tribunal ruled against Chinese claims in the South China Sea. Since then, the European Union and several of its member states have been reinforcing their diplomatic engagement in East Asia. These include a military presence in the form of naval deployments.
Following France, the Netherlands, and Spain, in August 2021 Germany sent a warship, the frigate Bayern, on a six-month deployment to East Asian waters. The mission has been declared Germany’s contribution to safeguarding the “rules-based” conduct of international politics across the Indo-Pacific.
The experts participating in this GIGA event will take the recent voyage of the Bayern as an opportunity to discuss the mission. They will examine the challenges that German and European policymakers face when implementing their Indo-Pacific visions of a multipolar world governed by the rule of international law.

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
