1. India and UK seek secure, open Indo-Pacific region:
India and UK called for a secure, free, open, inclusive and prosperous Indo-Pacific, amidst China flexing its military muscles in the strategically vital region.
The two countries, in a joint statement, said they share a global outlook and commitment to a rules-based international system that strongly opposes unilateral actions that seek to undermine that system through force or coercion.
"A secure, free, open, inclusive and prosperous Indo-Pacific is in the interests of India, the UK and the international community," it said.
The statement came as China is building new vessels at a rapid pace to bolster its navy.
