“…The comparative analysis of this research characterises the role of various stakeholders in the Indo-Pacific region� Apart from the EU, there are many European countries that have their own structures and collaboration with the Pacific countries� French politics is different from other EU member countries, as France paved the way for a stronger EU presence in the region� Germany has a greater presence along with the French in the Indo-Pacific region� The consequences of the German-French partnership on the EU's strategy in the region have become a reality for extensive partnership with the Pacific countries� There is a main motto aimed at restricting China's aggression in maritime connectivity (Duchâtel & Mohan, 2020;Grare, 2020;Mohan, 2020)� The German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas stated in 2019 that the EU should engage in the complete transformation from the geoeconomics capabilities to the geopolitical power in the Indo-Pacific region� The French and German policies support the EU's extensive presence and multidimensional geoeconomics ties between the Pacific powers� Later, Maas discussed the support for transatlantic trade cooperation -it should rise to the core of intercontinental trade and economic partnership towards the Indo-Pacific rising powers (Ulatowski, 2022)�…”

The aim of the paper is to study the European Union’s geoeconomics policy for cooperation in the Indo-Pacific region. In recent times, the Indo-Pacific has been gaining attention of the global economic powers. On this issue, the EU has launched a cooperation policy in the IndoPacific. This study examines the EU’s comprehensive strategy for the expansion of its presence in the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea. The EU wants economic and security partnerships among the Indo-Pacific countries. Among the EU member states, the French government is much enthusiastic about strategic cooperation in the Indo-Pacific. The European Union’s policy has been operating in the regions as an instrument of soft and hard power. The research highlighted that the EU implies the construction of structural strategic networks to intensify the high capacities in the projection of power. The EU uses the key approaches of hard and soft power to achieve transatlantic goals. The comparative case study method is useful to know the objectives and results of the research. In conclusion, the EU needs to establish a much stronger relationship among the pacific countries to counter the Chinese aggression and expansion in maritime diplomacy.

The Indo-Pacific has partially replaced the term Asia-Pacific and emerged as a geo-economic and geostrategic concept over the last decade, with Japan, Australia, the United States, and India launching their respective plans. As a resident power and a long-time partner, France seized the opportunity. In May 2018, the French Indo-Pacific strategy was initiated during President Macron's state visit to Australia and released as an official document a year later, making France the first European power to adopt such a strategy. To unveil the driving forces behind French policies and the roles of France in the region, this article employs major theories in international relations (realism, liberalism, and constructivism). In particular, the authors analyze France's tactical actions concerning like-minded partners and a rising China, addressing how France can protect its interests and amplify its leverage in the region amid Sino-American tensions. The paper specifies several differences between the French approach and other major countries. Last but not least, given the importance of the Franco-ASEAN links mentioned in Section Three of the official strategy, the article also clarifies recent developments in their relationship, focusing on the role of Vietnam in France's overall scheme.

Oba kraje poszukują sposobów, by stopniowo rozbudowywać handel morski i pogłębiać współpracę gospodarczą, zatem ważnym aspektem stosunków indyjsko-francuskich staje się partnerstwo morskie (Grare, 2020). Premier Indii odbył niedawno wizytę we Francji i ugruntował swoją strategiczną współpracę z tym krajem na rzecz ustanowienia pokoju, dobrobytu i stabilności w regionie Indo-Pacyfiku.…”
