President Obama put his answer in the context of what he calls the overall message for China, about being a world power in an economically important region.
"With their rise comes increased responsibilities," said the president. "It is important for them to play by the rules of the road and, in fact, help underwrite the rules that have allowed so much remarkable 10 econ progress to be made over the last several decades. And, that is going to be true on a whole host of issues."
President Obama, Prime Minister Gillard, and U.S. officials say a major objective of the agreement is also to increase the ability of the United States to quickly assist countries in East and Southeast Asia, and train and exercise with them, in such areas as anti-piracy and disaster response.
