The identification of foreign policy trends and analysis of foreign policy structures of these powers could provide a better understanding of the factors and forces contributing to regional stability or tension.

Japan and China are aspiring powers that could pose a threat to American interests and capabilities. Under the new balance of power, Russia and China may strengthen their partnership to promote mutual interests. The US-Japan alliance is likely to function as a counter-balance against Russia and China. Given the power differentials among the four major actors, relative stability will continue to underscore major power relations in the Asia-Pacific region.
