The article discusses the importance of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) in American foreign policy and argues for its reinstatement. It highlights the economic gains, job creation, and policy leverage that joining the TPP could bring, particularly in countering China's rise. However, the article acknowledges the challenges of persuading the American public and Congress due to partisan gridlock and populist backlash. It also mentions the Biden administration's introduction of the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework (IPEF) as an alternative, but suggests that active advocacy is needed to rally support for the TPP and pursue a coherent foreign economic policy.
