"Today, Quad`s scope has become extensive, its form effective. Our mutual trust, and our determination is giving new energy and enthusiasm to democratic powers," he said as the Quad leaders held their second in-person meeting in Tokyo.
"At the Quad level, with our mutual cooperation, a free, open and inclusive Indo Pacific Region is getting encouraged - it is the shared goal of all of us," PM Modi, who is on a two-day visit to Japan, said.
