New Delhi, October 27: Since a long time Japan has been trying to counter China with an alternative plan for OBOR(One Belt One Rod) initiative. Japan wants to promote free trade and that is why the country was thinking of an alternative of OBOR. On Thursday Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono said Japan wants to propose a top-level dialogue with US, India, and Australia. On very next day, India has welcomed the dialogue.
Replying to that India has expressed its will to work with like-minded countries on issues that will help country’s development. A statement says India has an open mind to cooperate with countries with convergence but on an agenda relevant to India.
Giving an example of India’s tri-lateral involvement with various countries such as India-Japan-Us, India-Japan- Australia, India-Afghanistan-Iran, the stamen reads India is not rigid about such issues.
