The leaders of the Quad (Quadrilateral Security Dialogue) held an important meeting in Tokyo, the capital of Japan. All the leaders involved in the Quad meeting unanimously gave a stern message to China. The Quad group made it clear that no country could dominate the other. With this statement, the Quad countries have challenged China's growing aggression and influence.
Quad consists of India, Japan, Australia and America. All these countries are coming together to maintain peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific. China is steadily increasing its stake in the Indo-Pacific.
The Quad leaders stressed that all countries should abide by international norms and refrain from any kind of unilateral action that could disturb the peace and stability of the region. In this context, Quade showed its tough stance by directly addressing China's activities.
Concern over China's growing aggression
China's growing aggression and its regionalist stance are behind the Quad's statement. China has increased its military presence in the South China Sea and East China Sea in recent years. Apart from this, China has also taken aggressive measures against Taiwan and other neighboring countries. This aggression of China has not only threatened regional peace but also raised questions about the security of international sea lanes.
Purpose and Background of the Quad
The Quad, which includes countries like Australia, India, Japan and the US, was launched in 2007. The Quad was formed to promote security and cooperation in the Indo-Pacific region. Although initially not given much importance, the Quad's activities have increased in recent years due to China's aggressive policies. Together, the four countries are trying to maintain freedom, democracy and governance in the Indo-Pacific.
At the meeting, the Quad members resolved to strengthen cooperation in various fields, including military, disaster management, vaccines and cyber security. Apart from this, maritime security and economic cooperation were important issues of the meeting.
