Abstract: The IndoPacific Strategy of the Kishida administration is the continuation and development of the overall concept of the IndoPacific Strategy of former Japanese Prime Minister Abe. The IndoPacific Strategy of the Kishida administration aims to curb Chinas development, achieve the balance of power in the IndoPacific region, promote the implementation of the “new capitalism” policy, and enhance strategic autonomy. After taking office, the Kishida administration comprehensively promoted the IndoPacific Strategy from the political, economic, diplomatic, defense and other aspects. Politically, the Kishida administration continued to consolidate the USJapan alliance and build a new framework for ChinaJapan relations. Economically, it creates new impetus for economic growth and strengthens economic security. Diplomatically, it emphasizes value diplomacy and forms democratic alliances. In terms of defense, it focuses on the military security of the IndoPacific region and enhances self defense capabilities. However, the implementation of the Kishida administrations strategy still faces many challenges. First, Japans domestic problems will hamper the implementation of the Kishida administrations IndoPacific Strategy. Second, Japans partnership is not stable, and ASEAN countries are unwilling to follow Japans IndoPacific Strategy. Third, it is difficult for Japans IndoPacific Strategy to get rid of the influence of the United States to achieve strategic independence. Fourth, ChinaJapan cooperation under the framework of the IndoPacific Strategy is difficult to achieve. In addition, the expansion of Chinas influence will restrict the actual effect of the Kishida administrations IndoPacific Strategy. The IndoPacific Strategy of the Kishida administration has had a certain negative impact on ChinaJapan relations. China should respond in a prudent manner, manage and control differences, and bring ChinaJapan relations into the track of sound development.
Key words: the Kishida administration, Indo -Pacific Strategy, China-Japan relations, the Belt and Road Intiative
