I write about how Indian firms sourcing from China and manufacturing for the world may get stuck between two contesting export controlsystems.

They need
1. A protective instrument for Indian companies
2. Bilateral mechanisms with both 🇺🇸 & 🇨🇳
3. Public guidance from the GoI

Marco Rubio’s India visit showed where the India-US relationship now stands: important, necessary, but increasingly transactional. The visit delivered a critical minerals framework and a White House invitation for the Indian PM, but no settlement on tariffs or Russian oil.

For India, the task is to deal with Washington as it is, not as it once was. Strategic autonomy must now translate into strategic leverage: deeper ties with Europe, Japan and the Gulf; stronger engagement with US institutions beyond the White House; and clearer pricing of concessions on energy, trade and market access. In the age of America First, goodwill is not enough. India needs hard bargaining.

Our recent #ClosedDoorRoundtable on "Advancing the Quad for Economic and Security Cooperation in the Indo-Pacific” brought together major stakeholders from the strategic and academic community.

Key discussions focused on:

- Strategic direction and institutional coherence of the #Quad
- The U.S. Factor and External Strategic Pressures
- Security Dynamics and #MaritimeCooperation in the Indo-Pacific
- Economic Security, Supply Chains, and Critical Technologies

The discussion also probed into critical and forward-looking questions:

- What are the top three actionable priorities the Quad should focus on over the next 3-5 years?
- How can the QUAD better integrate policy, industry, and strategic communities to deliver tangible outcomes?
- What metrics or benchmarks should be used to assess the Quad’s effectiveness and credibility?

* Three things in focus for both sides— takeaways for their respective domestic audiences, the Strait of Hormuz question & the future of energy supply

Politeia Research Foundation's Sanjay Pulipaka says
* By naming their contingent #Minab168 and honouring the children aboard their plane, Iran has claimed the moral high ground and has better optics than the US

While many foreign policy observers may have faced whiplash from the perception that Indian policy had shifted from the “west to the east” and possibly back to the west, the shifts are less perceptible if you consider India’s decades-old policy of strategic autonomy and balance. The visit to China for the SCO had been expected for months, after the Xi-Modi meeting in Kazan on the sidelines of the BRICS summit in October 2024 had restarted ties. In that sense, the Modi-Xi meeting was simply an attempt to normalise ties after years of serious tensions, and the Modi-Xi-Putin chat, would have been more significant if followed by a revival of formal Russia-India-China talks.

As #India engages more closely with #China, I write about what India should watch out for, and how it can avoid being outmanoeuvred by focusing on strategic engagement directly with key Chinese companies.

We hope we have been able to do justice to the voices of these communities.
