We know that it’s hard to stay up-to-date on USIP’s latest publications, so we’ve challenged our teams to summarize their latest research in less than a minute. The United States is rapidly expanding its engagement in the Pacific Islands region and has close ties with the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia and Palau -- collectively called the Freely Associated States, or FAS. However, China's engagement in the region is threatening U.S. interests. In this edition of “Briefly,” USIP’s Brian Harding takes a look at how Washington should respond.

The United States Institute of Peace is a national, nonpartisan, independent institute, founded by Congress and dedicated to the proposition that a world without violent conflict is possible, practical and essential for U.S. and global security. In conflict zones abroad, the Institute works with local partners to prevent, mitigate, and resolve violent conflict. To reduce future crises and the need for costly interventions, USIP works with governments and civil societies to build local capacities to manage conflict peacefully. The Institute pursues its mission by linking research, policy, training, analysis and direct action to support those who are working to build a more peaceful, inclusive world.
