In the Asia-Pacific region, the US has made its return in an effective manner and this is likely to continue without any time limit.

The US possesses enormous geopolitical and technological power. But even a country as unique as the US will get no free pass to get to the future
The United States needs to treat India as an exception given the uniqueness of the US-India relationship, argues Dr. Anit Mukherjee of the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Singapore.
The real challenge for US policy comes in East Asia, where China's growing power is testing American alliances. America's allies that feel bullied by China have no option but to rely on US power.
India is still coming to grips with the emerging multi-polar world order and managing great power relations still appears to be a major challenge for Delhi.

America's release of five Taliban leaders recently in exchange for one of its troopers has grave implications for not just Afghan security but also the India-Pakistan détente.
The drastic and sudden drop in Venezuelan and Iranian oil exports to India in 2019-2020, due to the looming threat of US secondary sanctions, is the latest supply chain disruption to India’s energy security.
