Discussions like this, which underscore how profoundly our lives are touched by the nuances of geopolitics, are a central focus of our work as an organisation committed to facilitating dialogue on issues relevant to Asia.

In a comprehensive, wide-ranging discussion, they explored the impact of the US-Israel-Iran war on geopolitical equations in the Middle East, the global economy, and India’s energy infrastructure.

Such a good discussion organised by @AsiaSocietyIC in Mumbai to take a deep dive into the challenges posed by the situation in West Asia. Happy to join @MohanCRaja , @neelkanthmishra and @sardesairajdeep to share my views.

#ORFHinduConclave | India-US Relations: Between Promise and Peril

This panel will feature: @PramitWorld, @priyankac19, @manupubby, @akshmathur & @RachelRizzo

@orfonline @hinducollege_du @kas_india @IndianOilcl

Key Insights:

🔹The world is grappling with how to navigate Trump-led #America. As a result, the space for manoeuvre is shrinking for all nations. Despite this, New Delhi has managed to foster dialogue and engagement to advance its interests.

🔹The #US has always had the power to coerce states in #economic, #supplychain, and defence-related arrangements. However, it is becoming evident today.

🔹For #India, the biggest challenge is #China, and thus it needs technology to offset the military-strategic challenge from Beijing. The lack of trust and cooperation in India-US high-end #defence technology cannot be made up for by New Delhi's engagement with European partners.
