On September 6, 2017, as part of the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, the Valdai Discussion Club held a special session, devoted to relations within the Russia-China-USA-Japan quadrangle.
The Valdai Club session is devoted to new opportunities for multilateral cooperation in Asia. The context for such a discussion is provided by the continuation of ‘Russia’s turn to the East’, changes in the US regional and global policy, strengthening of the multifaceted partnership between Russia and China, and the spirit of cooperation in Russian-Japanese relations.
Although contradictions and disagreements on important issues exist between the countries of the Asian region, Asia should not be allowed to become a region divided by zones of influence and competition between groups of states.
The United States' refusal to participate in projects, which the previous administration regarded as a means to contain China and, in part, Russia, could open up new opportunities for multilateral cooperation.
Russia needs to further strengthen its position in Asia through collaboration with all important players in the region, and to engage them in projects to develop the Russian Far East, deepen its integration with regional and global markets.
Relations within the Russia-China-USA-Japan quadrangle could eventually become a basis for cooperation and coordination of interests which is beneficial to all. A practical agenda for such cooperation must be shaped now, through substantive discussion of its participants’ approaches to the political and economic development of Asia and the world.
