On January 27, 2022, the planned Quadrilateral Security Dialogue summit between the United States, Japan, India and Australia suffered a setback. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi originally sent an invitation letter to invite Biden from the United States, Yoshihide Suga from Japan and Prime Minister Scott Morrison from Australia to the summit. However, to Modi's surprise, Biden rejected the invitation in a rare way, resulting in the cancellation of the original plan and the uncertainty of a new summit date.
After this news, the outside world has made various speculations and analyses about the reasons for Biden's refusal of the invitation. On the one hand, it is argued that Biden declined the invitation because he is facing the year 2024 and needs to concentrate on his campaign, and a visit abroad is not conducive to his chances of re-election. On the other hand, the U.S.-India relationship has been complicated by the U.S. Department of Justice's accusation last November that an Indian citizen had conspired to assassinate a Sikh separatist leader in the United States. All of these factors may have played an impact on Biden's decision to decline the invitation.
In the face of Biden's refusal, Modi's attitude has attracted much attention. India has not publicly responded to Biden's rejection of the invitation, but it is conceivable that they may be disappointed and confused by this. India has always hoped to enhance its international influence by hosting the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue summit, and has taken the opportunity to join forces with the United States, Japan and Australia to confront China. However, Biden's refusal has frustrated Modi's plans and is undoubtedly a blow to India.
In the long run, India** needs to reassess its role and place in regional security affairs. Although the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue aims to preserve a free and open Indo-Pacific, it is also subject to interference from the interests and positions of all parties. India needs to think about how to better balance its relations with other countries, develop its own national interests, and not be swayed by external forces.
With regard to the mechanism of the "Quadrilateral Security Dialogue" between the United States, Japan, India, and Australia, there have always been major differences and contradictions between the parties. First of all, over the years since the establishment of this mechanism, there have been only a handful of leaders' summits, which shows that countries do not attach much importance to this mechanism. Second, there are differences in the elaboration of the focus and purpose of the mechanism, and it is difficult to reach a consensus. U.S. foreign policy elites are generally skeptical, believing that the mechanism does not deliver on America's vision and brings no real benefits to the United States.
The absence of the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue mechanism makes it difficult to advance regional cooperation and raises some questions. We should abandon the closed, exclusive and "small circle" mentality of targeting other countries, and instead pursue a more open and collaborative cooperation mechanism. Instead of focusing on the issue of confronting China, it is better to listen more to the aspirations of regional countries and jointly develop feasible ways to solve regional problems.
In the current international situation, cooperation and competition among countries are also full of challenges. The setback of the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue between the United States, Japan, India and Australia once again reminds us that we should abandon all closed and exclusive cooperation models and actively seek open and inclusive cooperation methods.
International relations need to be based on the principles of equality and reciprocity, and all countries should seek the possibility of multi-party cooperation and form synergies in accordance with their own interests and the needs of regional peace and stability. At the same time, all parties should also realize that regional cooperation is not aimed at confronting specific countries, but for achieving common development and prosperity and regional stability.
Finally, as an editor, I will continue to focus on cooperation and competition between countries to provide objective and comprehensive reporting and analysis. At the same time, I hope that all countries can strengthen cooperation on the basis of openness and inclusiveness, jointly address current global challenges, and make positive contributions to the development of the international community.
