The U.S. Navy’s RIMPAC 2020 Maneuvers Bring 20 Ships and 10 Pacific Nations Together
In an analysis, RSIS Associate Research Fellow Jun Yan Chang and Pontifical Catholic University Associate Prof Nicole Jenne wrote about how the ‘Rim of the Pacific’ (RIMPAC) exercise hosted by the US Navy, the world’s largest maritime exercise, may be more about showcasing defence capacity — and less about military diplomacy.
Jun Yan Chang is an Associate Research Fellow with the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies in Singapore. Previously from the Republic of Singapore Navy, he participated in RIMPAC 2010.
Nicole Jenne is an Associate Professor at the Institute of Political Science at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile. She holds a PhD in international relations from the European University Institute.
