AUKUS won’t impact Quad, US tells India

The US on Monday briefed India on its new trilateral AUKUS military pact with the UK and Australia, stressing it will not detract from either the bilateral cooperation with New Delhi or multilateral ones like the ‘Quad’. There are some concerns that AUKUS could dilute the strategic cooperation envisaged under the Quad, relegating the quadrilateral grouping to just issues like climate change, Covid-19 vaccines and the like.
