HIROSHIMA, Japan — U.S. President Joe Biden said on Saturday on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Japan that "a great deal of the future of our world is going to be written in the Indo-Pacific."
Biden met with prime ministers Narendra Modi of India, Anthony Albanese of Australia and Fumio Kishida of Japan. Together with the United States, the countries make up the Quad Alliance which aims to push back China's influence in the region.
