#QuadSummit: India, US, Japan, Australia Agree To Pool Resources For Vaccine Initiative, Vouch For Peaceful Indo-Pacific

PM Modi at the Quad meet said, “We will work together to promote shared values, secular, stable and prosperous Indo-Pacific.

 

The Quad group virtual summit took place on Friday. The group includes the US, India, Australia and Japan. In the first meeting, the four countries agreed to share their resources to manufacture the vaccine. This means that the resources available with the four countries to produce the vaccine will be pooled.

In the meeting, PM Modi was the first to speak. He said that Quad agenda covers vaccine, climate change and technology development. “We will work together to promote shared values, secular, stable and prosperous Indo-Pacific. I see this positive vision as an extension of the ancient philosophy of India ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’, which treats the world as one family,” he said.

Biden stressed on new partnership in vaccine manufacturing

In a virtual meeting, US President Joe Biden said, “The United States is committed to working with you and all of your allies in this region. This group is particularly important because its focus is on practical solutions and tangible results. Free Indo-Pacific Area is important for the future of all our countries. We are going to introduce a new mechanism to meet the challenges of climate change and to increase mutual cooperation.”

Biden said, “We are starting a big partnership together, which will promote vaccine manufacturing for the benefit of the world. With this partner, vaccination will also be conducted in a more robust manner in the entire Indo-Pacific region.”
