US Secretary of State Pompeo seeks to shore up support among Asian allies to counter China

The US is looking to solidify support from allies in Asia as ties with China hit an all-time low. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is in Tokyo to shore up support against what the US calls China's "dangerous regional influence". Known as the "quad group", foreign ministers from the US, Japan, India and Australia held their first in-person meeting since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The future of the world lies in East Asia. China, Japan and South Korea, think about it, these three countries are very powerful, but the United States stationed troops in Japan and South Korea, these two countries can not develop independently.

Nah !!! .... Dont get involve with this shore up support kind of allies strategy ... SG and other Asian countries must be neutral cos China has been a huge and major economy contributor to all Asian countries and so are the West ... China did make huge blunder with that virus and also displaying aggression but we cannot isolate China completely and must find ways to be diplomatic to both China and USA ... God bless this world.

The way he has to take a breath between phrases is tiring to the listener. It gets worse when he breath inside a phrase. He has to loose seriously. If you get to see him standing on a profile view you wonder what time he has to read or elaborate reports. He obviously dedicates a lot of time to carbohydrates (Italian macaroni, Chenolli, Esfinge, lasagna). No shame for being Italian . He has to be healthier, though
