Is QUAD first step towards Asianism?

Japan's former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's vision that he expressed in India's Parliament's haloed halls in 2007 has finally been realized. The Security Quadrilateral Dialogue' QUAD' finally saw the light of the day, 14 years since its formal revelation. A big success for ex-PM Abe, QUAD is undoubtedly one of Japan's biggest attainments in the new Reiwa Era that began under Emperor Naruhito's ascension in 2019.
