On Tuesday, September 26, Professor Marcin Grabowski visited the Edwin O. Reischauer Center for East Asian Studies to discuss the effects of the Ukraine war on the East Asia Regional system.
Director of the Centre of International Studies and Development of the distinguished Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Professor Grabowski has extensively researched institutional arrangements of the Asia-Pacific region. Utilizing this knowledge, Professor Grabowski analyzed how the power vacuum left by a weakening Russia has altered the power dynamics in East Asia. Ultimately, he posited that this power vacuum has made countries in the region shift closer to either China or the United States based on their alignment with Russia.
In the Q&A section of the discussion, Professor Grabowski said that such shifts have enabled China to enhance its role in East Asia without the need to intervene in Ukraine.
