India-Vietnam Relations through the Prism of the Indo-Pacific Concept

摘要

As influential actors in the regional security architecture, India and Vietnam share common political and security interests and their bilateral cooperation plays a crucial role in contributing towards shaping a safe and secure Indo-Pacific region. Both the countries share an identical value perspective on the Indo-Pacific and hence augmenting their strength in the regional order would facilitate maritime security, reviewing opportunities and challenges in the region, as well as building an equitable and open trade and investment system. Reinforcing and extending cooperation to other countries helps to realise shared objectives and contributes towards better management of pressing regional and global issues.
