Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced that Sydney will be the venue for the Quad Leaders‘ Summit on May 24.
In a tweet, Albanese said, „I’m pleased to announce that Australia will be hosting the Quad Leaders‘ Summit for the first time on May 24 in Sydney.“
He added, „Hosting our Quad partners in Sydney next month will be an opportunity for Australia to help shape the region we all want to live in.“
The Quad is a strategic platform that includes India, Japan, the United States, and Australia. Its key goal is to create a fresh approach to ensuring the Indo-Pacific’s vital sea routes remain free from any form of control.
Prime Minister Modi is scheduled to visit Australia to participate in the Quad leadership summit. The announcement was made in March during a joint press conference held by Prime Minister Modi and his Australian counterpart.
Meanwhile, according to a press release by The White House, President Biden is set to participate in the Quad Leaders‘ Summit in Sydney. The summit will be attended by Prime Minister Kishida Fumio of Japan and Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India.
As reported by ANI, the leaders of the Quad group have convened four times in the past, and their next meeting is scheduled to be held in Australia. The group’s significance in the region has grown as a result of its strong focus on sustainable and inclusive economic growth, as well as its efforts to promote connections between Quad members and non-Quad members at the individual level.
