H.R. McMaster

Chair of the Advisory Board, Japan Chair

Kunihiko Miyake

Research Director, The Canon Institute for Global Studies; Visiting Professor, Ritsumeikan University; President, the Foreign Policy Institute

How is Russia’s invasion of Ukraine changing the US-Japan Alliance? What lessons from Ukraine are there for Taiwan’s defense against China’s People’s Liberation Army? And what does maintaining peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific mean for Washington and Tokyo? The Kishida administration in Japan will need to consider these questions as it looks to update Japan’s strategic defense documents.

Please join us as Hudson Institute Japan Chair H.R. McMaster sits down with Kunihiko Miyake, research director at The Canon Institute for Global Studies, to discuss the past, present, and future of the US-Japan Alliance.
