‘US or China?’: Guam’s Governor Lou Leon Guerrero | The Pacific | ABC NEWS
In an interview with The Pacific, Guam Governor Lou Leon Guerrero reflects on the island’s complicated relationship with the United States.
She explains why many on Guam want greater autonomy and a stronger voice in decisions that shape their future, especially as the island becomes increasingly central to America’s military strategy in the Pacific.
But while the growing US military presence brings real pressures, from land use to housing and local control, Governor Leon Guerrero says the military also remains vital to Guam’s security, economy and place in the region.
