Correct answer: (A) 1, 2, 3 and 4 — All four doctrines are correctly matched, so the answer is 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Explanation
★All four doctrines are correctly matched, so the answer is 1, 2, 3 and 4.
★The Palm and Five Fingers doctrine is China's, treating Tibet as the palm and neighbouring areas as fingers.
★The String of Pearls is China's network of facilities across the Indian Ocean.
★The Pivot to Asia was the United States' rebalancing towards the region.
★The Necklace of Diamonds is India's response, building partnerships around China.
★Each doctrine thus links to its own country.
★So every pairing here is correct.
