Leveraging PACOM Theater Security Cooperation for a Stronger U.S. Role in Oceania's Maritime Security
2007
McCrimmon, Jr, Douglas R.
The National Maritime Security Strategy and the recently released Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower both describe the importance of maritime security to the safety and prosperity of all nations and describe an array of threats to the security of the maritime commons. One of those threats, foreign fishing vessels engaging in illegal fishing, threaten the security of the Micronesia, and therefore, threaten U.S. interests in the Pacific Command's (PACOM's) area of responsibility. This paper examines why illegal fishing is a threat, looks at current maritime security efforts in Micronesia, concludes there is more PACOM can and should do, and recommends a change to PACOM's Theater Security Cooperation Plan to increase PACOM's security engagement in Micronesia.
