Abstract
Observers saw US “pivot” to Asia announced by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in 2011 as a strategic policy to balance China's rise. But the Obama administration denied this, making the goals of the pivot unclear. President Obama added an economic element to the pivot with the Trans-Pacific Partnership. This complicated the pivot. Defence spending, needed to make it work, was cut. Currently it is difficult to discern where the pivot stands.
