Context:

QUAD grouping is gaining attention in view of growing assertiveness of China in south China sea.

Concept:

  • The grouping consists of Japan, India, United States and Australia.
  • All four nations find a common ground of being the democratic nations and common interests of unhindered maritime trade and security.
  • The idea was first mooted by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in 2007. However, the idea couldn’t move ahead with Australia pulling out of it.
