QUESTION: Following up on those travel plans, I mean, this is obviously
going to be portrayed by some in the commentariat as another effort to
put the squeeze on China. You’ve got another sort of ? with Beijing,
you’re doing the Southeast Asia and the South China Sea. To what extent
is the South China Sea element going to be a part of the Secretary’s
discussions? And is that also ? is the China element part of her trip to
the Pacific Islands Forum?
南支那海の中国と周辺国の諍いについて、中国に自制を求めることを国務長官は
されてきましたが、今回の訪問でも同じ意向ですか？
MS. NULAND: Well, as you know, we have been emphasizing the pivot to Asia
for some time now. The Secretary is personally very invested in that.
This is the second or perhaps third trip already this year to Asia. The
Pacific Islands grouping has been one that she has been working with and
nurturing all the way through. As you remember, she met with the Pacific
Islands Foreign Ministers at the UN General Assembly last year. They
invited her to be the first Secretary in some years to come to this forum,
and she accepted.
