Abstract

U.S.-China strategic rivalry is intensifying - and nowhere more so than in the Indo-Pacific. This
is likely to result in new US requests to close allies like Denmark to increase their security
and defense policy contributions to the region. French and British efforts to establish an
independent European presence in the Indo-Pacific present Denmark with a way to accommodate US requests without being drawn directly into the US confrontation with China.
