India and Japan hold talks on Indo-Pacific security as they eye China's activity in the region

The foreign and defense ministers of India and Japan Tuesday held security talks in New Delhi, aiming to bolster their strategic partnership in the Indo-Pacific as they seek to counter China's increasingly assertive economic and military activities in the region.

Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar and Defense Minister Rajnath Singh met with their Japanese counterparts in the two governments’ third so-called “two-plus-two” talks since their launch in 2019.

India and Japan said in a joint statement that the two sides reviewed their bilateral cooperation and had a “wide-ranging discussion on regional and global issues focusing on the shared Indo-Pacific region.”
