India is Australia’s top security partner, according to Marles, and the Indo-Pacific region gains directly from its Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
There have been several firsts in the defense relationship between Australia and India this year, including an Indian submarine visiting Perth and Australia holding Exercise Malabar. Marles highlighted how the defense and security alliances of both countries are becoming closer.
