India-Japan-US Focus on ‘Inclusive’ Indo-Pacific
In the first-ever trilateral summit between India, Japan and the US, the three countries focused on building a regional architecture in the Indo-Pacific region, stressing on the new framework being “inclusive”.
This being the first trilateral on the margins of the G-20, the meeting seals the importance of the Indo-Pacific framework as a new policy architecture in this region. PM Narendra Modi had put out five action points — connectivity, sustainable development, maritime security, disaster relief and freedom of navigation — as issues with which the trilateral group should engage the countries of the region.
