Overview

After a five-year hiatus, China, Japan, and South Korea held the 9th Trilateral Summit in May 2024. While the meeting yielded few concrete outcomes, the resumption of trilateral diplomacy signaled a desire to reinforce cooperation among the three countries. However, given the concurrent intensification of Japan-Korea-US relations and rapprochement between Tokyo and Seoul, some have questioned the prospects for improved ties between China and the two American allies. What are the possibilities and limits of China-Japan-Korea cooperation? What are its impacts on regional security? What are the strategic objectives of each country?
