India, Japan and the US held
their fourth tri-lateral dialogue
in which they discussed wide
range of regional and global
issues of mutual interest,
including prospects of greater Indo-Pacific commercial
connectivity. "These discussions focused on
the prospect of greater Indo- Pacific commercial
connectivity," state
department spokesman Patrick
Ventrell said at his daily news
conference. A readout of the meeting later
in the day said the discussions
focused on the prospect of
greater Indo-Pacific
commercial connectivity and
regional and maritime security, and cooperation in multilateral
fora. "All sides welcomed the frank
and comprehensive nature of
the discussions and agreed the
talks help advance shared
values and interests," the State
Department said. The group agreed to meet
again in the fall in Tokyo to
continue their deliberations. The meeting was co-chaired by
the Assistant Secretary of State
for South and Central Asia
Robert O Blake, and acting
Principal Deputy Assistant
Secretary of State for East Asia and Pacific Affairs James P
Zumwalt. The Japanese delegation was
headed by Deputy Vice Foreign
Minister for Foreign Policy
Kenji Hiramatsu and Deputy
Director-General Kanji
Yamanouchi, while the Indian delegation was headed by joint
secretaries in the external
affairs ministry DB Venkatesh
Varma and Vikram Doraiswami.
