Reuters reported on June 28, 2024, that former U.S. President Trump, despite continuing to spread misinformation in the first presidential debate, gained confidence in winning due to Biden's poor performance. Trump's allies have begun quietly engaging with U.S. allies like Japan and South Korea, assuring them that if Trump returns to office, he will strengthen cooperation between Japan and South Korea and collectively resist China's influence. Multiple former officials from the Trump administration have been conveying messages to officials in Tokyo and Seoul, emphasizing enhanced military, economic, and diplomatic cooperation to deal with global tensions. This shift in foreign policy, post-Trump's debate victory over Biden, signals a continuation of Biden administration's focus on the Indo-Pacific region.
