GS2 (International Relations: groupings affecting India's interests). Economic coercion in the Indo-Pacific has pushed the Quad beyond security toward technology and supply-chain cooperation, as seen in the $85 million AI access commitment. India must balance Quad engagement with strategic autonomy and regional ties, and the way forward is delivering concrete, inclusive projects for Indo-Pacific partners.
