After Quad & AUKUS, US Forms “The Squad“ to Counter Chinese Aggression | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Tensions are flaring in the Indo-Pacific as China’s provocative actions in the region are raising concerns about regional stability and security. Earlier this week, the Chinese Coast Guards attacked a Philippine vessel using water cannons in the South China Sea. This follows a string of similar incidents this year, raising alarm in Manila. Beijing’s massive military presence in the disputed waters of South China Sea poses a big threat to its neighbouring countries including Japan, Taiwan and Philippines. In a bid to push back against Chinese aggression in the Indo-Pacific region, the US has come up with a new regional alliance nicknamed, the Squad. This new alliance includes four countries - Australia, Japan, the Philippines and the US. The Squad aims to be a united front against Chinese threats in the Indo-Pacific. The plan is two-pronged: firstly, increased joint military drills to improve interoperability among member nations. Secondly, bolstering the Manila’s defences through security assistance and potential upgrades to their military equipment. However, previously formed alliances such as the Quad and AUKUS intended to counter China’s regional influence are yet to achieve significant results. Will the new Squad alliance be more effective? Palki Sharma tells you more.
