Аннотация:Today in Russia we can observe serious discussions about the future of the Indo-Pacific region. The reason for this is that the process of creation of Indo-Pacific Construct acts as the defining core of the entire changing system of international relations in the Pacific and Indo-Pacific Asia. Author points that the ongoing changes open up new opportunities for the countries of the region but also create some new threats. The problem is that the main driver for Indo-Pacific integration are the United States. They placed the APR in another, even larger geographical area - the so-called Indo-Pacific region. In this new configuration, as they suppose, the overall situation and the alignment of forces would be completely different - China is on its periphery, and India is in the center as an ally. Thus, the confrontation with China in Asia would enter a completely different phase, in which the US position looks significantly more preferable than in the old APR configuration.
