In welcher Welt? Indien ist mit seiner Bevölkerungsgröße sowieso ein Kandidat für eine weitere "Supermacht" - einzig Verwerfungen durch den Klimawandel könnten diesen Trend brechen. Wenn überhaupt hat die Erfahrung mit Quad den Indern demonstriert, dass sie so einer Vereinnahmung längst entwachsen sind.

ZitatNATO Plus: India on Thursday elucidated that it has no intention of joining the West-led North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). While addressing a press conference in New Delhi on the completion of Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said the military alliance is "not suitable for India". According to NATO, it is an intergovernmental military alliance between 31 member states – 29 European and two North American. Its main purpose is to guarantee the freedom and security of its members through political and military means.
The critical remarks from India came weeks after a powerful [US] Congressional Committee recommended strengthening NATO Plus by including India. NATO Plus, currently NATO Plus 5, is a security arrangement that brings together NATO and five aligned nations – Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Israel, and South Korea – to boost global defence cooperation. Bringing India on board would facilitate seamless intelligence sharing between these countries and India would access the latest military technology without much of a time lag.
However, rejecting the proposal, Jaishankar said, "NATO template doesn't apply to India." It is worth mentioning the suggestion from America came ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the United States.
