Relations between the United States and the 10-nation Association of Southeast Nations (ASEAN) are “critical,” said U.S. President Joe Biden in Washington D.C. on Friday.
Speaking on the final day of a two-day summit, Biden told leaders that “the breadth of our discussions reflect just how vital the Indo-Pacific and ASEAN regions are to the United States of America.”
