The '''Group of Three''' ('''G-3''' or '''G3''') is an informal grouping made up of the [[United States|United States of America]], [[China|People's Republic of China]], and [[Republic of India]].  [[List of countries by GDP (PPP)|The three largest countries]] by [[gross domestic product]] based on [[purchasing power parity]] (PPP) are China, the United States, and India. The [[List of countries by population (United Nations)|three largest countries by population]] are India, China, and the United States.

References to a Group of Three of the United States, China, and India date back to the twenty-first century. Like the [[Group of Two|G2]] grouping of the United States and China, the original concept was rooted in the strong economic growth of India and China since the 1990s which led to them becoming [[emerging power]]s and [[great power]]s in the early twenty-first century. The [[World Economic Forum]] used the term G3 in 2023, after India became the fastest-growing major economy in the first three years after the [[COVID-19 recession]]. Since then, World Economic Forum President [[Borge Brende]] continuously promoted the idea of the G3.

The United States became the third most-populous country after China and India in the 1990s after the [[Dissolution of the Soviet Union|dissolution]] of the [[Soviet Union]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www2.census.gov/prod2/statcomp/documents/1991-02.pdf |title=Population and Area (Historical Censuses) |publisher=United States Census Bureau |access-date=June 20, 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080624185938/http://www2.census.gov/prod2/statcomp/documents/1991-02.pdf |archive-date=June 24, 2008 |url-status=live  }}</ref><ref>Almanaque Mundial 1996, Editorial América/Televisa, Mexico, 1995, pp. 548–552 (Demografía/Biometría table).</ref>

=== The Quad ===
{{main|Quadrilateral Security Dialogue}}
In early 2007, [[Japan]]ese Prime Minister [[Shinzo Abe]] proposed the [[Quadrilateral Security Dialogue]], under which [[India]] would join a formal multilateral dialogue with [[Japan]], the [[United States]] and [[Australia]].<ref>Brewster, David(2010).

The initiation of an American, Japanese, Australian and Indian defense arrangement, modeled on the concept of a [[Democratic peace theory|Democratic Peace]], was credited to Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.<ref name="Chellaney">Chellaney, Brahma.

''The Japan Times'', 3 November 2008 (originally published by the BBC Monitoring South Asia).</ref> The Quad was supposed to establish an "Asian Arc of Democracy", envisioned to ultimately include countries in Central Asia, Mongolia, the Korean Peninsula, and other countries in Southeast Asia: "virtually all the countries on China’s periphery, except for China itself." This led some critics, such as former [[United States Department of State|U.S. State Department]] official [[Morton Abramowitz]], to call the project "an anti-Chinese move",<ref>Ching, Frank.

While China has traditionally favored the [[Shanghai Cooperation Organisation]], the Quad was viewed as an "Asian [[NATO]];" Daniel Twining of the German Marshall Fund of the United States has written that the arrangement "could lead to military conflict," or could instead "lay an enduring foundation for peace" if China becomes a democratic leader in Asia.<ref>Twining, Daniel.

During the [[2017 ASEAN Summits]] in [[Manila]], all four former members led by Abe, Australian Prime Minister [[Malcolm Turnbull]], Indian Prime Minister [[Narendra Modi]], and US President [[Donald Trump]] agreed to revive the Quad partnership in order to counter China militarily and diplomatically in the [[Indo-Pacific]] region, particularly in the [[South China Sea]].

====China's opposition====
China sent diplomatic protests to all four members of the Quad before any formal convention of its members.<ref>Nicholson, Brendan.

''The Age'', 15 June 2007.</ref> In May 2007 in [[Manila]], Australian Prime Minister John Howard participated with other members in the inaugural meeting of the Quad at Cheney's urging, one month after joint naval exercises near Tokyo by India, Japan and the United States. In September 2007 further naval exercises were held in the [[Bay of Bengal]], including Australia.<ref name="Chellaney" /> These were followed in October by a further security agreement between Japan and India, ratified during a visit by Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to Tokyo, to promote sea lane safety and defence collaboration; Japan had previously established such an agreement only with Australia.<ref name="Chellaney" />

Though the Quadrilateral initiative of the [[Presidency of George W. Bush|Bush administration]] improved relationships with New Delhi, it gave the impression of "encircling" China.<ref name="LeeStraits" /> The security agreement between Japan and India furthermore made China conspicuous as absent on the list of Japan's strategic partners in Asia.<ref name="BusTim Ed" /> These moves appeared to "institutionally alienate" China, the [[ASEAN|Association of South-East Asian Nations]] (ASEAN), and promote a "Washington-centric" ring of alliances in Asia.<ref name="LeeStraits">Lee, John, "Bush legacy: Better US-India relations."

The Japanese Prime Minister succeeding Abe, [[Taro Aso]], downplayed the importance of China in the Japan-India pact signed following the creation of the Quad, stating, "There was mention of China – and we do not have any assumption of a third country as a target such as China." Indian Foreign Secretary [[Shiv Shankar Menon]] similarly argued that the defence agreement was long overdue because of Indian freight trade with Japan, and did not specifically target China.<ref>Varadarajan, Siddharth.

===Concept of the Indo-Pacific===
{{Main|Indo-Pacific}}
India and the United States have played a major role in purposefully redefining the "Asia-Pacific" as the "[[Indo-Pacific]]", to deepen trans-regional ties between the Indian and Pacific Ocean areas, and to, in their words, deal more effectively with the [[Chinese Century|rise of China]] in Asia, the Middle East and Africa.<ref name="AP1">{{cite web |url=https://www.asiapacific.ca/sites/default/files/publication-pdf/CANADA%20AND%20THE%20INDO-PACIFIC%20%281%29.pdf |title=Canada and the Indo-Pacific |website=[[Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada]] |date=September 2020 |access-date=9 April 2021}}</ref><ref name=perthasia1>{{cite web |title=Towards a Quad-Plus Arrangement? |url=https://perthusasia.edu.au/our-work/towards-a-quad-plus-arrangement |website=Perth USAsia Centre |access-date=5 May 2020}}</ref> The term "Indo-Pacific" gained traction in the political lexicon and strategic thinking of not only between India and China, but also [[ASEAN]],<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.realinstitutoelcano.org/wps/portal/rielcano_en/contenido?WCM_GLOBAL_CONTEXT=/elcano/elcano_in/zonas_in/asia-pacific/ari29-2021-wacker-europe-and-the-indo-pacific-comparing-france-germany-and-the-netherlands |date=9 March 2021 |title=Europe and the Indo-Pacific: comparing France, Germany and the Netherlands |author=Gudrun Wacker |website=[[Elcano Royal Institute]] |access-date=9 April 2021}}</ref> the European Union, the United Kingdom, France,<ref name="eastasiaforum.org">{{cite web |url=https://www.eastasiaforum.org/2019/12/12/frances-indo-pacific-strategy-inclusive-and-principled/ |date=12 December 2019 |title=France's Indo-Pacific strategy: inclusive and principled |website=[[East Asia Forum]] |access-date=9 April 2021}}</ref> Germany,<ref name="Caroline Tang">{{cite web |url=https://www.eias.org/news/risk-diversification-germany-joins-the-indo-pacific-policy-arena/ |date=10 November 2020 |title=Risk Diversification: Germany Joins the Indo-Pacific Policy Arena |author=Caroline Tang |website=European Institute for Asian Studies |access-date=9 April 2021}}</ref> and the Netherlands.<ref name="Sebastian Strangio">{{cite web |url=https://thediplomat.com/2020/11/following-france-and-germany-the-netherlands-pivots-to-the-indo-pacific/ |date=18 November 2020 |title=Following France and Germany, the Netherlands Pivots to the Indo-Pacific |website=The Diplomat |author=Sebastian Strangio |access-date=9 April 2021}}</ref>

In 2024, Brende reaffirmed his support for the concept of a G3 based on economic growth, saying "This notion of G3 is now becoming a fact".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/india-today-conclave-2024/story/20240401-indias-path-to-a-10-trillion-economy-india-has-made-g3-a-fact-2518177-2024-03-22|title=India's path to a $10 trillion economy; India has made G3 a fact|work=IndiaToday|date=22 March 2024 }}</ref> Although some sources claim Brende first coined the term G3, it was used before him.<ref name=WEF /><ref name=Kumar /><ref name=Merchant />

== Other geopolitical usage of the term ==
While the G3 usually refers to China, India, and the United States, some sources replace India with another entity.<ref name=WEF /><ref name=Kumar /><ref name=Merchant /><ref name="Teck Ghee" /><ref name=Carnegie />

From the 1990s until 2006, the term referred to the [[G3 Free Trade Agreement]] between [[Colombia]], [[Mexico]], and [[Venezuela]]. The trade agreement lasted from 1995 to 2006, when Venezuelan President [[Hugo Chávez]] announced that his country would withdraw from the trade bloc.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000086&sid=a._1nxVgPqe8 |title=Bloomberg.com: Latin America |website=www.bloomberg.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930045948/http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000086&sid=a._1nxVgPqe8&refer=latin_america |archive-date=2007-09-30}}</ref>

The [[Carnegie Endowment for International Peace]] once used the term to mean the growing power of the [[European Union]] instead of India.<ref name=Carnegie>{{cite web |url=https://carnegieendowment.org/research/2024/10/us-china-relations-for-the-2030s-toward-a-realistic-scenario-for-coexistence?lang=en |title=US-China Relations for the 2030s: Towards a Realistic Scenario for Coexistance? |work=Carnegie Endowment for International Peace}}</ref> Since [[Brexit]], the European Union is [[Member state of the European Union|currently composed of 27 member states]] known as the EU 27.
