BEIJING (China Daily/Asia News Network): The attempts by the United States, Japan, Australia and India to deepen their ties in critical and emerging technologies are aimed at marginalising China in crucial global industrial and supply chains, which will harm the interests of their own companies, experts said on Wednesday (May 25).

On Tuesday, leaders of the four countries, known as the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue or simply Quad, said in a joint statement that they will strengthen cooperation in 5G, semiconductors, biotechnology and quantum technologies, including closer partnership in international standardization organizations.
