That month saw the first meeting of a new iteration of the “Quad” an assembly of government representatives from Australia, India, Japan, and the U.S. In some ways, it was the physical manifestation of several complementary geostrategic trends: growing comfort and convergence among the four democracies, growing apprehension about China’s rise and threats to international rules and norms setting, and an emerging shared vision for the Indo–Pacific region.

Indian External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar is reportedly planning to have discussions with the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken during his visit to the US. Their discussions will definitely include topics targeting China, but may have little real impact on this biggest neighbor of India, Chinese academics told the Global Times on Friday.
Jaishankar, who landed in New York on May 23, is on a week-long trip to the US, which marks the first visit of a high-level Indian minister since President Biden took office in January.
