13 Mar 2021

The Leaders of Quadrilateral Security Dialogue or Quad met virtually on Friday where US President Joe Biden said the US, Japan, India and Australia are committed to working together to tackle the shared challenges and to secure a free and open Indo-Pacific region. President Joe Biden, joined by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga, held the virtual meeting on Friday; their first under the aegis of the Quad, Indian media reported. At Friday’s meeting, the leaders signed off on a plan to pool their financial resources, manufacturing capacities and logistical strengths to ramp up the manufacture and distribution of Covid-19 vaccines across the Indo-Pacific. The Quad Vaccine Partnership, as the plan is called, will build on India’s Vaccine Maitri initiative by creating additional manufacturing capacities in India.
