Vice President Kamala Harris will seek to reassure the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation in Bangkok, Thailand, that the United States is committed to the Indo-Pacific and that the region has no better partner than the U.S. after last week’s surprising midterm election results.

“The United States is a proud Pacific power, and we have a vital interest in promoting a region that is open, interconnected, prosperous, secure, and resilient,” Harris is expected to say at the APEC CEO Summit on Friday morning local time, according to her prepared remarks.
