So my question is, is the pivot to Asia possible? What does America need to stop doing to pivot to Asia? Or is that just like a false hope?
15:07
Definitely not a false hope.
15:08
Of course, it depends on what you mean.
15:10
I mean, by pivot to Asia, do you mean that Asia becomes the sole focus of US foreign policy? Do you mean that it becomes the priority focus of US foreign policy? the priority.
15:22
It seems like it's not the priority.
15:24
I just mean like different people use the term pivot to Asia.
15:26
They have different things in mind.
