.@TimSCahill1: There is a wide range of threats that we are facing today, such as the continuing struggle of #terrorism, emerging asymmetric capabilities, & #military & #economic competition. The domains in which our adversaries operate now are very broad.

#Raisina2022

.@TimSCahill1: While we have been occupied with #COVID19, our adversaries have grown stronger & expanded their capabilities. There is a need to develop an ability to counter our adversaries’ #hypersonics.

#Raisina2022

.@TimSCahill1: To deal with the threat scenario, we need to develop #networked systems. That system needs to be resilient. The nodes in this integrated networked system have to operate as a whole & not independently. This is essential to counter the threat scenario. #Raisina2022

.@TimSCahill1: Finding the convergence of national needs for #nationalsecurity, national economics, and #business for the industry is critically important. We need to draw #supplychains from around the world.

#Raisina2022

.@Lisa_Singh: The 21st century has brought with it new threats to the global order. How can the countries assembled here today bring stability, in this age of #digital threat, to ensure a stable and rules-based order in the #IndoPacific?

#Raisina2022

.@Lisa_Singh: The breakdown of the #global order has a direct impact on the flow of #technology, so what has this unstable global order in store for us? Will we see more cooperation or a zero-sum game dominate?

#Raisina2022

Adm. R Hari Kumar: We are in a contested world because of the conflict & the challenge posed by #technologies that are emerging. This offers great opportunities for #cooperation & collaboration between like-minded countries.

#Raisina2022

Adm. R Hari Kumar: How a nation uses #technology depends on its mission and values. #Democratic nations have always exercised restraint in the way #tech is used.

#Raisina2022 #Defence #DefenceCooperation

Air Marshal Luc De Rancourt: Does #technology change the way we wage war? Since we have a wide variety of tools and stakeholders, the conflicts now involve a lot of different domains. What do we really want?

#Raisina2022 #warfare #Defence

Air Marshal Luc De Rancourt: Do we really want a world where the #internationalregime is under zero-sum game which leads to #security dilemma or do we want to maintain equilibrium by strengthening #cooperation with like-minded countries?

#Raisina2022

Gen. Koji Yamazaki: #Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine is a violation of the international #rules-based order; it is an attack on sovereignty & integrity. We must learn from this war. We just acquire capabilities to prevent such events in the future.

#Raisina2022

Gen. Koji Yamazaki: How we use this new #technology in #cyberwarfare, especially in cross-domain operations, will be key. It is important to differentiate between disinformation and correct information.

#Raisina2022

Gen. Koji Yamazaki: We must clearly demonstrate our will and capability to deal with these #emergingthreats and have a #synergised approach.

#Raisina2022

Adm John C. Aquilino (@INDOPACOM): This is a concerning time when seen from the lens of global security as is visible from the #Russian aggression & the attitude of #China. We are cooperating with like-minded countries & becoming interoperable to ensure a free & open #IndoPacific

.@CDF_Aust: #Tech is being used widely in grey-zone tactics. The most appropriate approach to deal with these threats is by joining hands with like-minded nations. We have to be innovative & demonstrate strength to expose undesirable behaviour of belligerent nations. #Raisina2022

Adm. R Hari Kumar: To enhance #maritime security, India has kept up its goal of being the first responder which helps in developing trust, #interoperability, exchange of #information and good practices, and domain awareness.

#Raisina2022

Adm. R Hari Kumar: It is impossible for any one country to ensure #maritime security. Therefore, there is a need for cooperation, collaboration, and interoperability so that peace and order can be collectively maintained in the #IndoPacific region.

#Raisina2022

Adm John C. Aquilino (@INDOPACOM): All forms of #tech apply to military warfare & we need to prepare with a sense of urgency. Now, cooperation is happening more in the #multilateral sphere rather than the bilateral one.

#Raisina2022

Air Marshal Luc De Rancourt: The #French #IndoPacific strategy is completely aligned with the #EU Indo-Pacific strategy. We need to lay out concrete objectives such as enhancing security in #Asia.

#Raisina2022

Adm John C. Aquilino (@INDOPACOM): Like-minded nations in the #IndoPacific have been working together for 80 years. Our values and interest to keep #peace and prosperity in the region is a very good thing.
