"Quad Is Here To Stay, Here To Do And Here To Go": EAM's "Clear" Message
Quad Foreign Ministers Conclave: The Quad has additional responsibilities of upholding a rules-based order and collaboration under the grouping can ensure that the Indo-Pacific remains free and secure, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said on Monday amid China's increasing assertiveness in the region.
In his opening remarks at a foreign ministerial conclave of Quad, Mr Jaishankar said a clear message should be sent that the Quad is "here to stay, here to do and here to go." "As political democracies, pluralistic societies and market economies, there is the key question of upholding a rules-based order," Mr Jaishankar said.
