Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles’ visit to the subcontinent is aimed at bolstering ties and addressing concerns about China.
Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles, who is also defence minister, met with India’s External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh during his four-day visit to India.
“But Russia’s war on Ukraine does teach us that we cannot just rely on economic interdependence to deter conflict; and that deterrence can fail when one country’s determined military build-up creates an imbalance of military power. Mr Marles cited India’s ongoing border dispute with China in the Himalayan region as an example of what happens when an emerging superpower doesn’t play by the rules.
