Описание: San Francisco, February 11, 2025 – Asia Society Northern California hosts a public program exploring the QUAD and its role as a pivotal Indo-Pacific partnership. Consuls General from the member-states of Australia, India, and Japan gather to discuss recent international developments and what those developments mean for the future of the QUAD.

Vinod “Vinnie” Aggarwal, distinguished Professor in Political Science and Director of the Berkeley APEC Study Center at UC Berkeley, moderates the session. Featured speakers are Chris Ketter, Consul General of Australia in San Francisco; Dr. K. Srikar Reddy, Consul General of India in San Francisco; and Yo Osumi, Consul General of Japan in San Francisco.

The panelists cover how the QUAD member-states plan to move forward in the coming years with regard to the new U.S. presidential administration, security concerns involving China, regional economic interests, and how the QUAD relates with other institutions like ASEAN and AUKUS. Each panelist provides distinct insights into various topics, yet all agreed that the QUAD would benefit from increased cooperation and the bolstering of shared values.
