The Foreign Ministers of the Quad — India, the United States, Australia, and Japan — are set to meet in New Delhi, the first such meeting in nearly a year. External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar will host US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong, and Japanese Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi at Hyderabad House, and the ministers will also call on the Prime Minister.
The Quad, or Quadrilateral Security Dialogue, is a grouping of four democracies focused on a free, open, and rules-based Indo-Pacific. It cooperates on areas such as maritime security, critical technology, supply chains, climate, and health.
