<p>The Prime Minister made clear through this year's Integrated Review that an increased
focus on the Indo-Pacific is a key priority for this government. We are therefore
building and strengthening partnerships bilaterally, multilaterally and in minilateral
groupings across the region. The Indo-Pacific Quad is increasingly important to four
of the UK's closest partners in the region (Australia, India, Japan and the US). The
UK welcomes the outcomes of the two leaders' level Quad summits in March and September
2021, which echo many of the UK's priorities, including climate change, COVID-19 response,
emerging technology and infrastructure. We are looking at options for closer practical
cooperation with Quad members in these areas.</p>
