Last week, Minister of External Affairs Jaishankar and I signed a new landmark Australia-India Framework Arrangement on Cyber and Cyber-Enabled Critical Technologies Cooperation. This arrangement will create opportunities to strengthen our technical and economic linkages with a technologically aspirational India. A new Australia-India Cyber and Critical Technology Partnership will create a research and development fund for our businesses and researchers and support other countries to improve their cyber-resilience. Australia and India have a shared vision for an open, free, rules based and secure internet. Importantly, this will also ensure that cyber and technological cooperation will sit at the core of our new comprehensive strategic partnership as we forge a dynamic Australia-India 21st century relationship.
