You are the Asian specialist on the National Security Council at the White House. The President has asked you to write a two-page memorandum to him outlining where you think Asia is heading over the next twenty years. Your memorandum needs to address the growing economic and military power of China, and how that power might be used in light of Chinas history. In doing so, the memo should note what Chinas future relations with Japan, Vietnam, and North Korea might look like. In addition, you will need to inform the President of your views of the India-Pakistan relationship based on the history of those two nations.
Use the attached “Memorandum to the President” template to complete the assignment.
Be sure to cite three to five relevant peer-reviewed sources in support of your content. Use only peer-reviewed sources found in the GCU Library or those provided in Topic Materials.
