What was the purpose of QUAD, from India’s perspective, in a Raw language:
1. To form an alliance that fight against Terrorism in South Asia / South- East Asia;
2. To mitigate influence of China;
3. To have better Trade-Agreements; and,
4. To Protect Democracies on this side of Hemisphere.
That’s it!
NOW:
1. Just alike China was/is weaponizing Pakistan, US’s sitting Commander in Chief is directly doing Business with PAK’s Army General, further providing all Arms & Ammunitions. On the eastern side, US is protecting Yunus in B’Desh, while China is forging alliance with Jamaat. Thus, QUAD’s purpose is diluted!
2. QUAD, or, NO QUAD -> Tariffs Are Equally Distributed.
3. India–Japan already has separate Treaties & Ties; while Australia would do what US says, and it looks like many in US want US–India Relations to be Shelved; thus, QUAD is further disintegrated into 2-2; hence of no use.
4. With reference to Point 1 above, the cause to Protect and Fight for Democracy has already been diluted!
So,
Think about it -> What is QUAD then? I Say -> SOAD Is Far Better To Listen Than Listening To QUAD Now!
