Delhi’s choice: courted by West, trusted by rest? | Global Eyes

Western countries are clearly trying to get India on side: against China, to drop Russia or to join forces in the Red Sea. What about Gaza? Western efforts were on display at this year’s Munich Security Conference where Foreign Minister Jaishankar joined his US and German counterparts for a discussion of “shared opportunities.”

“Good partners provide choices, smart partners take some of those choices,” S. Jaishankar told the group.

That doesn’t preclude seeking out better offers or having to agree on everything. Our guests, Happymon Jacob, a foreign policy analyst and associate professor at Jawaharlal Nehru University and former career US diplomat Robin Quinville, now at the Wilson Center in Washington, joined Global Eyes hosts Isha Bhatia Sanan and William Glucroft at the conference to examine India’s role in the shfiting global order.

Does India have to pick sides?
