US, Japan, Australia and India leaders are expected to hold a leaders’ meeting
on Tuesday in Manila during a major Asian summit — the first Quad leaders’
summit in two years. Sources said critical mineral supply will likely be on the
agenda; leaders may discuss ensuring free commercial shipping to safeguard
global energy supplies and are likely to raise recent attacks on merchant
vessels. A Philippine government source said Trump is expected to arrive
Tuesday, the final day of the ASEAN summit, and the Quad leaders are expected to
meet shortly after his arrival.
