The United States and Japan face a crucial moment that will determine the future of global security—and their actions now will decide whether they can prevent a future crisis. In his new Japanese-language book Preventing a US-China War, Japan Chair Senior Fellow Masashi Murano gives an inside look at the deterrence landscape in the Indo-Pacific, the future of US-Japan cooperation, and China’s preparations for war. Then he engages in a dialogue with American national security experts like Hudson Senior Fellow Andrew Krepinevich Jr., Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster, and Under Secretary of Defense Elbridge Colby on America’s defense posture in an increasingly dangerous world.
Murano will sit down with Japan Chair Research Associate Iku Tsujihiro to discuss the book’s findings. An English transcript of their conversation is below.
