Russia Accuses Quad Nations Of ‘Forcing’ India Into Military Bloc, Urges Revival Of RIC Alliance

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has accused Quad nations — the US, Japan, and Australia — of dragging India into a de facto military alliance, despite Delhi’s stated focus on economic ties. Speaking at a Eurasian security forum, Lavrov warned of coordinated naval drills aimed at militarizing Quad beyond its original scope. He also pushed to revive the dormant Russia-India-China (RIC) trilateral platform, asserting that Western powers are deliberately stoking Indo-China tensions by reframing the region as "Indo-Pacific" with anti-China goals. His remarks signal Moscow’s shifting strategic focus in Asia. #RussiaQuad #IndiaQuad #LavrovStatement #RICAlliance #IndiaChina #IndoPacific #RussiaIndiaChina #Geopolitics #QuadMilitary #MoscowDiplomacy #GlobalShifts #AsiaPacific #QuadTensions #RICRevival #LavrovWarning #GalwanClash #IndiaChinaBorder #WesternStrategies #MilitaryDrills #RussiaIndiaRelations Also Read India Rebukes Pakistan Over Indus Waters Treaty Remarks At UN Forum: 'Appalled' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-rebukes-pakistan-over-indus-waters-treaty-remarks-at-un-forum-appalled-4169437.html?ref=DMDesc Russia: Bridge Collapse Derails Train, At Least 7 Confirmed Dead :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-bridge-collapse-derails-train-at-least-7-confirmed-dead-4169275.html?ref=DMDesc Adani Ports taps its Largest Ever Domestic bond - 5,000 crore 15-year NCD :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/apsez-secures-inr-5000-crore-via-non-convertible-debentures-012-4168661.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~

‘Hegseth touted the cold war…’ China BLASTS U.S In Response To Pete Hegseth's Speech In Singapore [Video]

‘Hegseth touted the cold war…’ China BLASTS U.S In Response To Pete Hegseth's Speech In Singapore

China has lashed out at U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth following his remarks at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, where he warned that China could imminently use military force against Taiwan. Beijing condemned the speech as provocative and divisive, accusing Hegseth of inciting bloc confrontation and pushing a Cold War mentality. China's foreign ministry dismissed the U.S. accusations as defamatory and asserted that only Washington deserved the label of a hegemonic power. The fiery exchange underscores growing regional tensions over Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific power balance. #China #PeteHegseth #TaiwanCrisis #IndoPacific #USChinaTensions #ShangriLaDialogue #AsiaPacific #ColdWarRhetoric #TaiwanConflict #USDefence #ChinaUS #TaiwanStrait #Geopolitics #CCP #MilitaryThreat #BlocConfrontation #WarOfWords #DefenceSpeech #BeijingVsWashington #AsiaSecurity ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.124~

“We’ll show peace through strength…” US Defence Sec’s BIG WARNING to China | Shangri-La Dialogue [Video]

“We’ll show peace through strength…” US Defence Sec’s BIG WARNING to China | Shangri-La Dialogue

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a dramatic warning of potential war with China, yet claimed the U.S. seeks no conflict. In a speech filled with paradoxes and Pentagon code, Hegseth promised “peace through strength — seen and unseen, overt and covert.” He emphasized that the U.S. will not humiliate or subjugate China but is fully prepared for confrontation. The remarks deepen concerns over rising tensions in the Indo-Pacific, suggesting a looming power struggle between Washington and Beijing conducted in part through shadowy, undisclosed means. #ChinaWarThreat #PeteHegseth #PentagonSpeech #PeaceThroughStrength #CovertOperations #USChinaTensions #IndoPacificSecurity #TaiwanCrisis #HegsethSpeech #TrumpChinaPolicy #Geopolitics #USMilitary #DefenseBuzzwords #ChinaConflict #HegsethWarning #USDefenseStrategy #CovertPushback #StrategicDeterrence #ShangriLaDialogue #TrumpDefenseChief Also Read J-35 Fighter Jet May Head To Pakistan As India Accelerates AMCA Push :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/j-35-fighter-jet-may-head-to-pakistan-as-india-accelerates-amca-push-4165099.html?ref=DMDesc China, Pakistan Agree With Kabul To Expand CPEC To Afghanistan :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-pakistan-agree-with-kabul-to-expand-cpec-to-afghanistan-4159507.html?ref=DMDesc China’s Renaming Stunt in Arunachal Won’t Change Reality, Says India :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/china-s-renaming-stunt-in-arunachal-won-t-change-reality-says-india-4152779.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.125~

‘China Won’t Invade Taiwan Under Trump…’, Says Pentagon Chief Hegseth, Warns Of Imminent Threat

At the Shangri-La Dialogue, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth declared that China would not dare invade Taiwan while Donald Trump remains in office, warning that Beijing poses a real and possibly imminent threat. Hegseth urged Asian allies to increase defense spending and prepare for a potential regional conflict. He affirmed Trump’s Indo-Pacific focus and emphasized consequences for any Chinese aggression. With China skipping the summit, Hegseth’s comments take on sharper geopolitical meaning, signaling America’s hard stance and strategic pivot toward Asia’s growing security challenges. #ChinaTaiwanTensions #TrumpHegseth #IndoPacific #ShangriLaDialogue #USChinaConflict #TaiwanDefense #ChinaThreat #PeteHegseth #TaiwanInvasion #TrumpWatch #AsiaSecurity #DefenseSpending #USAlliesAsia #XiJinping #Geopolitics #USMilitary #TaiwanPolicy #FoxHostToDefenseChief #PentagonWarning #TrumpForeignPolicy
