Quad meeting these days consists of the four countries sitting in a circle telling each other how they've been wrong by China and the other three should do something about it. It's pretty irrelevant.
They should just rename Quad to "Self Support Group for countries suffering from having China living inside their heads"
The QUAD is basically a bitch fest for individuals jealous of China (India), anxious over white privilege (australia and america) and fearful of the Chinese hammer of justice (Japan).
In this sense, the QUAD is irreplaceable as a safety blanket for white anglo supremacists from going general ripper as they pass on from this world:
The joint statement issued at Canberra lacks substance. But that doesn’t mean the QUAD’s time is up. Paradoxically, all four partners cannot do without the QUAD format. It provides an umbrella to huddle together behind closed doors and give vent to their grouse against China in hushed tone — a safety valve for pent-up frustrations. The attempts to create a “QUAD Plus” with the induction of countries like South Korea and Vietnam have failed.
On the matter of Europe, China and the EU will be holding talks on 1st April (anglo april fools day) which will in all likelihood supersede whatever the CAI was hoping to achieve. In this sense, the anglo american instigators in the EU Parliament will be sidelined.
