Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C
Explanation

The Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (Quad) is a strategic partnership comprising Australia, India, Japan, and the United States. Statement 1 is incorrect because France is not a member of the Quad. Statement 2 is correct as maritime security is a foundational pillar of the group's cooperation in the Indo-Pacific region. Statement 3 is correct; the Quad members established a dedicated working group on COVID-19 vaccines, known as the Quad Vaccine Experts Group or the Quad Vaccine Partnership [1]. This initiative aimed to expand vaccine manufacturing capacity, particularly in India, and ensure equitable access across the Indo-Pacific [2]. The group has since evolved to include six leader-level working groups covering diverse challenges like climate and emerging technologies.
