Synopsis<\/strong>: Both Quads offer tremendous opportunities to India. But India has to be cautious and maintain its relations with non Quad countries in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n

Introduction<\/h5>\n

Recently, the US, India, Israel, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) decided to launch a new Quadrilateral Economic Forum<\/strong><\/a> to have shared interests\u00a0in West Asia. India is already a member of the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (QSD)<\/a><\/strong> with the U.S., Australia and Japan, which have common concerns and shared interests in East Asia.<\/p>\n

These East and West Asian groupings can multiply India\u2019s trade possibilities via land and sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the benefits of both Quads?<\/h5>\n

Ensure regional peace and security<\/strong>: As Prime Minister Manmohan Singh would often say, the principal objectives of our foreign policy should be to ensure regional peace and security and \u201ccreate a global environment conducive to India\u2019s economic development.\u201d Both the East Quad and the West Quad seek to address these precise objectives.<\/p>\n

Reinforce maritime economic and security<\/strong>: After 1991, India has re-established its maritime links with the Indian Ocean and the Indo-Pacific regions. Almost all the Indian trade is now happening through the waters around the peninsula. This has recreated ancient maritime links, from Vietnam<\/strong> in the East to Egypt<\/strong> in the West, and has raised the profile of maritime security.<\/p>\n

While both Quads<\/strong> reinforce these maritime economic and security interests across the Indian and Pacific Ocean<\/strong> regions, India has been prevented from rejuvenating its land links with Eurasia by the China-Pakistan axis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What has to be done to improve both Quads?<\/h5>\n

First<\/strong>, both in East and West, the US may prefer the focus to be more on defence and military capability, while India should ensure that its economic interests<\/strong> are prioritised.<\/p>\n

Second<\/strong>, India should reassure non-Quad countries<\/strong> in Southeast and West Asia, including Iran, that they remain important partners. India has to stay the course with its policy of multi alignment and multi-engagement in an increasingly multipolar world.<\/p>\n
