United States Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin will speak on the US Indo-Pacific strategy when he takes part in the annual Shangri-La Dialogue from June 4 to 5, the Pentagon said early yesterday.
The summit s London-based organiser, the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), added that this will mark Mr Austin s first trip to South-east Asia, and that on top of delivering an on-the-record speech, he will be conducting bilateral and multilateral meetings on the sidelines.
Cancelled last year because of the pandemic, the Shangri-La Dialogue is resuming as an in-person gathering of high-level defence policymakers from around the world, with an event bubble centred on the Singapore hotel it is named after.
