What is 🇨🇳China's preferred endgame in the 🇷🇺🇺🇦 Ukraine war?
A 'hybrid peace'
What does it mean and why it is a trap for the West?

Thx @9DashLine @ManaliKumar for publishing my essay 🙏

How do you fix a sick culture?

Asking for a country of 1.4+ billion people.

It doesn't matter if you are a few months old or an old woman. You are not safe at home or in school or in a hospital. Even cops will assault you.

Sickening. Heartbreaking. and so deeply shameful.

Modi's 3rd term as PM brings both continuity and new challenges. From coalition politics to economic hurdles, what lies ahead for India? @ChetanRana96 and I analyse the trajectory of India's development and its political landscape 👇

"After a decade of sliding towards authoritarianism, a return to coalition politics promises a path to redemocratisation. Without a clear majority, the BJP can no longer bypass parliamentary scrutiny" https://t.co/qIR7cG6k03 | by @ManaliKumar and @ChetanRana96

The ungated version of our piece explaining the puzzle of why 3 years of (apparently) gangbuster real economic growth—9.7%, 7% & 8.2%—led to electoral chastisement not endorsement of the Modi government

[Manali Kumar @ManaliKumar]

Didn't even make it to 300. Oh to be a fly on the wall at the BJP HQ.

What an election!

[Manali Kumar @ManaliKumar]
