Welcome to the latest expert analysis from The Kootneeti! In this video, we delve into the recent visit of the Japanese Prime Minister, Fumio Kishida, to India on 20-21 March. Abhyuday Saraswat from The Kootneeti in conversation with Shashank S. Patel, a Research Analyst and PhD Researcher from the University of Delhi, who is an expert on East Asia discusses various aspects of this visit and its implications. Firstly, we explore the significance of Kishida's visit in the context of a series of important meetings involving QUAD members this month. From the US Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, to the Australian Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, and now the Japanese PM, we ask our experts to share their comments on the common pattern seen for pushing the strategic plan of the QUAD mechanism. We also discuss the Japanese Foreign Minister's decision to skip the G20 foreign ministers' meeting but attend the QUAD FM meet and what it implies for Japan's priorities. Moving on, we examine PM Kishida's announcement of a new Indo-Pacific Plan during his visit and why it matters. Our experts share their insights into the plan and its potential regional implications. We then shift our focus to Japan's invitation to India to the G7 meeting and discussed the importance of this meeting. We also explore how India and Japan, as presidents of two major bodies - G20 and G7 - can manage ties amid the current chaotic geopolitical scenarios. Lastly, we analyze PM Modi's definition of India-Japan relations as a "Special Strategic and Global Partnership."
