The formation of the new I2U2 grouping is a significant development where India's partnership can prove to be a "game changer", a former Israeli National Security Adviser has said ahead of the forum’s first high-level meeting which Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend virtually on Thursday.
The I2U2 - comprising India, Israel, the UAE and the US - was established in October 2021 following an initiative by the four countries' foreign ministers as part of External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar's visit to Israel.
In a virtual conference, the four foreign ministers agreed to utilise complementary capabilities to fulfil overlapping interests, thus bolstering cooperation and strengthening the strategic partnership between the new Quad partners.
