WASHINGTON -- The U.S., Japan, India and Australia will hold their Quad summit in Wilmington, Delaware, the home city of U.S. President Joe Biden, on Sept. 21, sources told Nikkei Asia, instead of India, the rotational chair of this year's gathering.

This will be the last gathering of the current leaders, with Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida stepping down soon. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will be in the U.S. for the United Nations General Assembly.
