Abstract
In the article, the author analyzes Western and Chinese political discourse regarding the definition of the region with access to Asia and the Pacific Ocean, in its traditional interpretation – as the Asia-Pacific Region or the new interpretation initiated by the United States – as the Indo-Pacific Region. The article provides a comparative analysis of the American Indo-Pacific security strategy and the Chinese approach to cooperation and security in the Asia-Pacific Region. The author comes to the conclusion that the reformatting of the Asia-Pacific Region is caused by the growing role of China and the desire of the United States to stem the Chinese influence in the region.
