Indo-Pacific Energy Dominance Strategy

March 13 – March 17, 2026

The Bottom Line

The Trump administration secured over $56 billion in energy and mineral deals with Indo-Pacific allies during a high-level summit in Tokyo. These agreements aim to boost U.S. exports and create jobs while reducing global reliance on energy from China and the Middle East.
