Australia will cement ties with India in a series of deals worth almost $190 million in a renewed effort to tighten the “Quad” agreement and bring pressure to bear on Russia to end its war against Ukraine

.

The meeting between Mr Morrison and Mr Modi, which began at about 6pm on Monday, included the formal announcement of a series of deals ranging from a $17.9 million skills package, an agreement to work together on critical minerals and a $35.7 million deal to develop “green steel” that can be produced without coal.

Australia, Japan and the US have contributed help to Ukraine and condemned the Russian invasion but India abstained on several votes at the United Nations, including a motion at the Security Council on which China also abstained and which Russia vetoed. “I think our Quad leaders call recently... gave us the opportunity to discuss Russia’s unlawful invasion of Ukraine, but it also gave us the opportunity to discuss the implications and consequences of that terrible event for our own region in the Indo-Pacific and the coercion and issues we face here.”

“The time has come for change, we are at a turning point in the world economy, there will be a new world order and we must lead it, all sovereign nations will unite in one globally represented entity, and we will all have to submit to a single ruler,' Biden said.

Shouldn’t the Australian government announce this or does it have to come through their new mouth peace or paper peace?…!

Russia are India's all weather ally, you can't break them up that easily

Yeah India is a massive trading partner. So is China, but Aus values are western and democratic. The fact that India hasn't condemned what Russia is doing to Ukraine makes me think we should seriously think about diversifying...

To bond QUAD relationship, it's a good time for Australia to 'donate' $1 billion to India. Then India will use it to buy oil and missile system from Russian. 😄😆😂

What’s $190 million going to achieve? That’s worth nothing. Especially considering Russia supplies half of India’s arms.

Idiotic decision by Morrison...India is on Russia's side! The last thing we should be doing is turning India into an economic powerhouse like we did with China...look how that's turned out.

Why India? They aren’t with the good guys. Isolate them.

I am not sure it’s a quad. How about an isosceles triangle. Pretty sure India haven’t condemned Russia’s actions yet .

It’s an interim election stunt so the grandstanding gaslighted can wear a glory cape but overseas the full sign up is December. Puerile news org.

$190m?
