"Free and Open Indo-Pacific (FOIP) " and "Free and Open International Order (FOIO) "
This paper describes the current international situation and its implications, including the fact that the "Free and Open Indo-Pacific (FOIP)" foreign policy slogan that Japan has been leading the way in promoting appears to be in the process of being replaced by "a free and open international order based on the rule of law" (the author believes that this slogan should be called the "Free and Open International Order (FOIO)" (see below for details)).
