India's World - Realignment of World Order

In this episode of India's World we will analyse if there is a realignment in the world order. A variety of shared geopolitical interests have brought New Delhi and Washington closer together than ever before. Both countries have several common interests and are concerned about the rise of China in the Indo-Pacific. The change in Geo-political dynamics and estranged ties with America also seems to have brought China and Russia closer together. In the midst of its trade war with the US, China has been working to strengthen its ties with Russia in multiple spheres. Given extended US and European Union sanctions against its officials and organisation for its annexation of Crimea from Ukraine, Russia also has reason to forge closer ties with China. But some experts believe the scale of cooperation remains limited. Other analysts believe if India has to be a global power New Delhi needs to focus on a few countries, like US, Japan, Israel, Germany and France.
