Abstract

Recent geopolitical shifts, particularly in the context of U.S.-China tensions, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and evolving trade alliances, have significantly impacted Asian countries. As global economic players, China, India, Japan and Taiwan are navigating complex dyna mics, balancing regional security concerns with eco nomic opportunities. China's assertive foreign poli cies, especially in the South China Sea and its Belt and Road Initiative, are reshaping trade routes and diplo matic relations. Meanwhile, India is aligning with Wes tern powers, bolstering its position in global supply chains. Japan and Taiwan face challenges balancing economic interests with security commitments to the U.S. These shifting alliances and conflicts are resha ping economic strategies, influencing trade flows, in vestment patterns, and technological advancements, while exposing vulnerabilities to global disruptions.
