In the Closing Spotlight Session of AOC 2025, Rene D. Kanayama, Senior Researcher, Institute ITSTIME, Catholic University of the Sacred Heart, and Lieutenant General Lance Landrum, USAF (Ret.), former Deputy Chair of the NATO Military Committee, provided their perspectives on the challenges facing EMSO over the next decade.
Kanayama delivered a Japanese perspective on the role of EMSO amid rising tensions in the Western Pacific. Having travelled to Ukraine several times over the past few years, he discussed the lessons Japan is learning from the Russo-Ukrainian War, particularly about the widespread use of drones, and how Japan is adapting its defense strategy to address new challenges posed by China, North Korea, and Russia.
