“Second largest purchaser of oil” was targeted, and insulted while you were silent on the biggest buyer, all while you shamelessly buy huge amounts of fertilisers. And why is the onus of “improving” the relationship between India and the U.S. on us? You messed it, you fix it!

Yep, we don’t succumb to bullying at all! 😎.
“If you tell India that it has to sacrifice its relationship with Russia, then Indian strategists are going to do the exact opposite,” warns former U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell

It was wonderful to be part of a brilliant panel discussion on Tianxia and the limits of the China-Pakistan axis, moderated wonderfully by @mrajivranjan

As I stated in a previous tweet: Bring. It. On.
India isn't flinching. "India’s stock market showed little sign of panic a day after the U.S. announced a 50% tariff on goods from the country and threatened secondary sanctions over its continued oil trade with Russia.".

Trump wants a G2 with China to bully the world together. Just in case anyone missed the signs, here they are in brief:. 1. Trump invited only one world leader to his swearing in-Xi Jinping, which China declined of course!.2. From the very beginning, Trump has been fawning over Xi.
*WSJ: US TO RAISE TARIFFS ON JAPAN BY ADDITIONAL 15% . Why would anyone negotiate with the White House? . They cannot keep their word for 7 days.

I speak to Anukruti for @StratNewsGlobal on the fact that China's youth are increasingly drawn to stable government jobs due to their prestige, benefits, and security, particularly among urban, educated individuals or those with CCP ties. There is a noticeable shift from

Not the first time India has been backstabbed by the U.S. and definitely not the last time. Every single time, India has only emerged stronger. Bullying is unacceptable to India, be it from the East or from the West. What Trump has done, in two brief points are:. 1. Hastening.
Trump has provided us a once in a generation opportunity to take the next big leap on reforms. Crisis must be fully utilised.

Bring. It. On. 25% or 50% doesn’t really make a difference. Hypocrite U.S. will be called out, and it can keep acting jealous of the time tested friendship between India and Russia. What the U.S. misses out is that it is one of the key factors that cemented the ties between

Contrary to the narratives of “India surrendering to China”, India’s recent diplomatic engagements with China, including resuming tourist visas and high-level meetings, signal a strategic approach rather than a concession. In this article for @firstpost, Gaurav Sen and I write.
#FPOpinion | India-China thaw: Strategic signalling, not concession. India’s recent uptick in diplomatic ties with China is not a concession; instead, it reflects Delhi’s calculated posture of strategic signalling, ✍️ @Sriparnapathak, Gaurav Sen.

What is the cause of Trump’s tantrums? India finds itself at the receiving end of his tantrums, just the way other U.S. partners and allies have found themselves at the receiving end previously. Trump blames part of his angst on India’s friendship with Russia, while he cozies up
