A day after the G20 Foreign Ministers' Meeting (FMM) was held in New Delhi, the city is set to host a meeting of the Quad foreign ministers on Friday. The meeting is expected to focus on the Indo-Pacific against the backdrop of increasing assertiveness by China in the region.
The meeting, to be presided over by External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, will be attended by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Japanese Foreign Minister Yoshimasa Hayashi, and Australia's Penny Wong.
"The next meeting of the Quad Foreign Ministers will be hosted by India on March 3 in New Delhi," the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said.
