Location: The Heritage Foundation's Allison Auditorium
What challenges will the new Congress face in Asia, and how will
it weigh its own involvement? How is Congress likely to react
to the Administration's new approach to North Korea? What are
the security implications of the Chinese anti-satellite testing;
was the administration response sufficient? What role will
the United States play in managing, hedging against the rise of
China? What role will Congress play in determining U.S.-China
policy? What are the prospects for a U.S.-Taiwan FTA
agreement or other pending FTAs? What will be the next steps
in building the U.S.-India partnership? What legislative
actions are under consideration to help reverse the Taliban
resurgence in Afghanistan and to fine-tune U.S. relations with
Pakistan?
Join us as a bipartisan, bicameral panel of congressional staff
members gives us their view of Asia from the halls of Congress.
