India foreign policy

In the emerging global order, is India’s hewing to “strategic autonomy” more trouble than it’s worth?

Rather than hand-wringing over India's reliability, it's time for Washington to face up to the facts: The U.S. has a serious image problem in India.

New Delhi has sought to navigate between expressing veiled concern for the Russian invasion and maintaining an important strategic and security relationship.

Given the geopolitical and security interests, India cannot afford to ignore or isolate Myanmar.

Even as India tilts closer to the U.S., Russia continues to play a crucial role for Indian strategy.

India’s foreign policy is increasingly ambitious. Can its foreign ministry keep up?

New Delhi will need to institutionalize scenario planning in foreign policy making if it is keen to shape global events.

“There is space for India to position itself as the organizer of a global development coalition.”

New Delhi’s crackdown on Kashmir since August 2019 has turned the global spotlight on the human rights situation there.

In New Delhi’s pursuit of influence in the Indo-Pacific, the flexibility and traction accorded by the practice of strategic autonomy will be its guiding north star.

India represents the only developing country that can challenge China in the long run. The Quad must help build India’s strengths.
