Lo anterior en el marco de la confrontación sinoestadounidense por la hegemonía mundial y de la firma, en noviembre de 2020, de la Asociación Económica Integral Regional (RCEP por sus siglas en inglés), iniciativa que cuenta con la presencia de China y es catalogada como el acuerdo de libre comercio más grande de la historia. Se considera que la administración Biden hará lo posible para regresar a Asia Pacífico emulando lo realizado con la estrategia denominada pivote asiático, y así poder hacer un contrapeso al ascenso chino, mediante instrumentos como la Estrategia del Indo Pacífico Libre y Abierto (FOIP).]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract This article aims to analyze the actions of the Joseph Biden administration to recover the US economic-commercial leadership in Asia Pacific, just as the trustworthiness of its regional allies; after former president Donald Trump decided to withdraw the US from Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) in 2017 and renegotiated free trade agreements. Besides, this in the context of the confrontation between China and USA for world hegemony and the signing, in November 2020, of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), an initiative in which China is present and has been identified as the largest free trade agreement in history. It is considered that the Biden administration will do everything possible to return to Asia Pacific, emulating what was done with the strategy called &#8220;Pivot to Asia&#8221;, and thus counterbalance the Chinese rise, through instruments such as the Free and Open Indo Pacific Strategy (FOIP).]]></p></abstract>
