Rubio: Quad summit to be held in Manila next month | NHK WORLD-JAPAN News - NHKニュース
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the leaders of Japan, the United States, Australia and India are scheduled to meet in the Philippines next month.
Rubio told a local media outlet in India on Tuesday that the next Quad summit will take place in Manila on the sidelines of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations leadership conference, which is scheduled to be held in mid-November.
This will be the first Quad summit since the start of US President Donald Trump's second term. His predecessor, Joe Biden, hosted the last summit in September 2024.
Arrangements were made to hold a Quad summit in India last year. However, it did not take place due to strained ties between India and the US over New Delhi's purchase of crude oil from Moscow.
After Trump visits the Philippines, he plans to travel to China for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum's summit. It is believed that he wants to confirm coordination with Japan, Australia and India by attending the Quad summit before his trip to China.
