THE United States is seeking to create opportunities for more US investment in Asean countries, US Indo-Pacific coordinator Kurt Campbell said on Wednesday (May 11), ahead of President Joe Biden's summit with South-east Asian leaders this week.
Campbell, speaking at an online event at the US Institute of Peace, said there is a deep sense in the Biden administration that other pressing global challenges cannot distract the United States from the Indo-Pacific region.
The leaders are set to discuss issues including China, Myanmar, and the war in Ukraine, he said. REUTERS
