Research Fellow, Manohar Parrikar IDSA, Dr. Jagannath Panda’s Piece on Australia-India-Japan relations, titled ‘The Australia-India-Japan Trilateral Need a Post-COVID Outlook; has been published as Indo-Pacific Analysis Brief, by the Perth USAsia Centre, on June 09, 2020.
The piece essentially argues that Australia, India and Japan are three powers whose strategic interests have converged significantly in recent years – yet there remains space to turn shared interests into joint actions. In the face of increased Chinese assertiveness and declining US reliability, the Australia-Japan-India trilateral could play an important regional balancing role post-COVID-19.
