Given this, America’s foreign-policy priorities have shifted to the Asia-Pacific region, where the most pressing economic, political, and security challenges – including the threat of North Korean missiles and rising tensions between China and its neighbors over competing sovereignty claims in the South and East China Seas – are emerging. Other global challenges appear relatively minor in comparison.
因此，美国外交政策重点转向了亚太地区，这里是最紧迫的经济、政治和安全挑战的滋生地，包括朝鲜导弹威胁以及中国与其邻国在东海和南海的主权纷争。相比之下，其他全球挑战是次要的。
