    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    Intresting analysis on warfighting. My point of view regarding China Taiwan war is similar to North Vietnamese takeover or recent Taliban takeover. Taiwan is a first world country with almost no appetite for a full scale conflict. Their citizens aren't redicalized to a point that they will...

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    As I have mentioned in my previous posts, Taiwan is Kashmir of China. If Xi captures Taiwan, it would elevate his status within CCP to near Mao level. In China CCP will be even more powerful domestically. As Chinese economy is cooling off such jingoist move will stroke nationalism sentiments in...

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    My thoughts on future of QUAD under uncertainty of CAATSA. The success of QUAD depends on US India relationship, especially after India's S400 deal with Russia. If US decides to punish India with sanctions it will create trust issues between US and India. Also it would be difficult to justify...

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    This idiot is calling India safe because India is a peninsula surrounded by water from three sides, by this logic Australia must be safest in Asia as it is an island surrounded by water from all sides. Also idiot continues Himalayas are impenetrable fortress and no power in world would even...

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    Lots of areas for cooperation. However for a new block they should focus on one or two areas and build upon that. Commitment to do everything will only increase burden at this early stage. Also this ideological wording is bit confusing. Is QUAD an ideological grouping or economic one? There are...

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    Very interesting JS. It seems that QUAD is more than just China centric grouping. It is more about technology and supply chains. QUAD is going towards much more integrated grouping in many fronts other than vaccines and climate change. Supply chain for semiconductors, space partnership...

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    Here is my speculation In this sale first question we should ask is why AUKUS agreement was needed for sale of N subs to an already treaty ally like Aus? Why include UK in this? First why AUKUS agreement Such international agreements are made for strategic & geopolitical reasons. What is in...

    Intresting development. If true, who could be behind this? Russians? Chinese? And what could be the purpose? Intresting stuff.

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    Very informative post on GDP. However my analysis was mostly focused on military technology not GDP. The advanced technologies that Australia could receive from US will definitely give them an edge over other Asian countries, especially their Navy.

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    Maybe it will change in future. My post wasn't really a prediction but rather a speculation of things to come. We are talking about top secret treaties and long term military planning anything can happen.

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    Really interesting read. Point no 7) French are pissed but not just for sub contact but the way they where ignored in Asia by Americans. Before NATO and WW2 there was a rivalry between UK and France. This still continues to this day but in friendly manner. Because of this US always made sure to...

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    If it wasn't for petty territorial ambitions of China, had they understood value of its neighbours, a China India Japan alliance would've surpassed any western grouping add Taiwan and S. Korea in it and you have a force like no other. Heck China being major power in Asia should've taken lead in...

    QUAD; The Concert of Democracies for Trade, Security & Diplomacy

    Americans will definitely extract their pound of flesh. Australia must have sacrificed something (most likely their sovereignty) over AUKUS. This why I said another UK in making.

    Most likely Tomahawk block V 1000+ miles range. If they give BM tech in secret I won't be surprised. Maybe they will help them with a jet engine and stealth design too. Be prepared to see Australia testing some advance "indigenous" weapons in next few years. It's another UK in making.

    PM changes in Japan and regime change in USA really killed QUAD in its infancy.

    Its not about what QUAD is but what it could've been if things were moving with as same momentum as it was during Trump administration.

    At this point only Intel will be shared in QUAD, is going to be for Vaccines and Climate Change.
