- A Conversation with Ambassador Pankaj Saran
For decades, India and Russia have enjoyed positive bilateral relations, strong arms trade and expanding diplomatic cooperation across a wide breadth of issues. However, Russia’s war in Ukraine has exposed challenges in its defense production sector and alienated Moscow from the broader international community, posing challenges to its relationship with New Delhi. And as the United States and India seek to expand their relationship across the defense, diplomatic and political spheres, New Delhi’s commitments to Moscow have become more closely scrutinized since Russia’s full-scale invasion two years ago.
Join USIP for a conversation with Pankaj Saran, India’s former deputy national security advisor and former ambassador to Russia, that will examine the strengths and challenges of the India-Russia relationship two years into Russia’s war in Ukraine and the implications for the trajectory of U.S.-India relations.

United States Institute of Peace the name itself is a joke😂
Fully agree with you. For the first time, I can't help echoing what the Commies called America "Warmongers".
We will have the last laugh
Exactly 😂😂😂😂😂😂
US democracy is in danger ,just.look at Columbia University . US is a autocratic dictatorship
🤣🤣
Its a scary name
Indian peoples emotionally attach with 2 countries 1. Russia and 2.israel..peoples of india always support them
Russia and Israel are at the opposite sides of Ukraine and Gaza conflicts
@@aAverageFan India's relationships with Russia and Israel have deep roots stretching back to the 70s and 80s, a time when the USA was supporting Pakistan with arms and funding, while overlooking the terrorist activities Pakistan was sponsoring in India. During this period, Russia and Israel were India's only reliable allies.
@@aAverageFan Its bcz they are time tested partners. A friend in need a friend indeed.
Emotionally? Lol. What would you call USA people sending their hard earned money so more of young Ukrainian and Russian men get killed?
@@aAverageFan Russia has pretty stable relations with Israel especially Putin. That being said Russia also supports the 2 state solution and is closer to the Arab league.
American propaganda 😂
Fucking england protest east india terrorist company
laugh now cry later chin chin ni
One important point #russia did send its delegation to indian state of arunachal pradesh for g20 meet in arunachal, russia also send its delegation to India to indian union territory ladakh for g20 meet...china din participated in both.
Heads-up to ambassador ... Lot of clarity ... He should have mention 1971 in the initial input and role of America in it
Some things are so obvious they are better left unspoken. In my opinion he has handled this session absolutely brilliantly. No one could have done it better
He didn't want to embarrass the host..
First thing is everybody knows that and if he again drags that topic in the USA very vocally as an ambassador then it will be problematic for the Indian govt to cover the mess...
He maturely explained everything as an ambassador... By the way he is not our talented Dr. Jai so better to act like polite as ambassador if you are not Dr. Jaishankar.
US Institute of peace.......where will the US start next war after Ukraine?
Taiwan
😂😂😂😂
How did us start did war with Russia and a agreement called The Budapest memorandum in 1994 that agreement said that Russia was never invade Ukraine unless they gave up their nuclear weapons and that's what you claim did with the United States and Britain the agreement last the all the way up to 2014 when Russia invaded and took over crima so Ukraine sigh a ceasefire in 2016 the shoot stop unilt 2022 and the USA was never good friend with Russia and Europe was never good friend with Russia in was Angela Merkel and Obama didn't follow The Budapest memorandum in 2014 what's what was to protect Ukraine from any invasion
And the whole of Europe was never friends with Russia because Poland and Lithuania Lafayette Estonia they were all telling your specialty Western Europe not to trust Russia Russia is going to invade sooner or later and they were right
India wants to play games they want us to buy oil and work with work with the criminal country and they have no issue have no responsibility when they get their ass caught up
India-Russian friendship is strong. Anything else is propaganda
are you Indian or rashiyan 😂
@@abhikulkarni7089I am indian and I agree russia is a good friend

In geopolitics no one is a permanent friend and no one is a permanent enemy. That being said, it needs to be acknowledged that the Russian and Indian relationship has stood the test of time. At the same time, India and US are on the same page on many ideological grounds, however it's a saga of missed opportunities and miscalculations. I mean, by strengthening China, the United States has created a headache not only for itself but for India and many other Asian nations too. Henry Kissinger may be a very astute and shrewd politician, but with the benefit of hindsight, it was wolly headed to strengthen China over other nations in the region as China is a hegemonic and expansionist power.
@@earthling017 perhaps permanent is too long. But india and russia do share a bond. If I can draw a parallel between US and UK.
Interests are aligned between US and India especiallh on china but there is no real chemistry. India can never be a western country and US can never fully understand indian ethos. So we can be close partners as our interests dictate but I would hesitate to say US and India can ever be as close as USA/ UK. Never allies. India would never count on USA to stand between India and a hostile nuclear force as the soviets did for india in 1971 against the American 7th fleet and the supporting British cast. Many of America's non western allies are confronting this harsh reality already.
Real title of Institute should be United states Institute of regime change😂
😂
😂
HYPOCRISY OF AMERICA IS UNMATCHABLE 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️ Biggest jokers
USA give credit to India telling putin not to use nuclear weapons but usa should put equal effort on ending the war. Also USA does not shy away backing khalistani terror group against india and calling Modiji a Hindu nationalist.
Just curious friend, what is wrong with being a Hindu Nationalism? Bharath is a Dharmic Civilization and we have never prosecuted people based on religion, unless it is anti civilizational.
How do you minus the fact in history that millions of lives were lost for the creation of 2 Islamic nations "chopped" away from Bharath?
Do we still want to play 2nd fiddle to what the West wants us to identify as? How long will we mimic the West hoping for acceptance.
Why can't we be original and be proud of our civilizational identity?
@dharma7766 it is used as a negative and demonizing way by Western countries in general. There is nothing wrong with it in any way. If you look at the US , Christian dominates the political landscape but not call Christian nationalist but call them selves " conservatives".
@@dharma7766 There's nothing wrong for us but they use in negative way. They use it to remind their citizens of the 3rd Reich, to them nationalism means pre 1945 Germany. It's a narrative building process.
@@dharma7766nothing wrong with Hindu nationalism. But modi is not a Hindu nationalist. He is the most secular leader India has ever had since independence. The purpose of Hindu nationalism is to protect local faiths from Abrahamic attacks of conversion and coercion. And to protect idolatry and polytheism and nature worship from Abrahamic attacks. But the issue is hindutva people are willing to display aggression against Abrahamics and to oneself. The hindutva path has some aggressive people who care more about pride than life itself and hence capable of harming others. Which sounds exactly like Pakistan. We can be Hindu nationalist and secular at the same time. And teach sarva Dharma sambhav to Abrahamics. No one should disrespect idolatry. We should ensure all idolators will be protected in our country. Protecting ourselves and our culture is not bad. It is good thing. In that sense hindutva is not bad. But that doesn't mean we should disrespect other religions , as long as our rituals and worship practices and gods are respected we give others their respect. No one should spam us saying that our gods are false gods. This is what hindutva should fight for instead of physically attacking others which is highly condemnable.
US or Europe never talk about Chinese occupation of Indian territory. US conveniently forgets that it sent its Aircraft carrier against India in 1971 and only a Soviet submarine saved India.
Fucking england protest east india terrorist company
Aksar chin was never a part of Kashmir, many maps authenticate my statement, so don’t be so hyped about losing territory that never belonged to the king of Kashmir
Someone replied to me about Aksai Chin when I didn't even mention it. He talked about maps. Tibet was an independent nation. A treaty was signed between the rulers of Ladakh and Tibet in 1684 and 1842 confirming that Ladakh including Aksai Chin was part of the Kashmir region and not a part of Tibet. No official Chinese maps showed Aksai Chin as a part of China before the 1920s. Kunlun mountains is the customary boundary between Ladakh and Tibet. And we know about Chinese maps 🤣. Aksai Chin is therefore CoK.
@@chandraaiyar3228 I’m not talking about Chinese maps but the British maps of that time (Maccartney- Macdonald line ) search this u will know that British themselves were not sure about aksai chin to be a part of Ladakh or Tibet. Tibet was a vassal state from the start. Few centuries it was an Independent state just like Punjab was independent under maharaj Ranjit singh. So u can’t claim Punjab to an independent country by that logic.😁 similarly Tibet in the better half of the history was part of Chinese empire, there land connectivity with Chinese mainland is very easy compare to India. We are separated by Tibet with Himalayas. So it was never easy for India to avoid Chinese occupation of Tibet. It’s like same if tomorrow India decides to occupy Nepal, it would be like 2 days to occupy whole Nepal while china can’t do anything because separated by Himalayas on Chinese side
That was 50 years ago by a different leader . What has Putin done to help anyone other than himself ?
Russia is, was and will always remain our friend not the USA (Supporter of Terrorists).
1971 Indo Pak warm.
Read before you question me!!
Not liking the US makes sense, they keep making up their own rules and then breaking them when its convinient to them, but supporting Russia is just weird. They keep murdering and raping innocents, razing cities and have a neofascist dictator wannabe as leader... thats dependent on China.
China is a rival to India, yes? So it doesnt make sense morally nor strategically to be a friend to Russia for India.
Amazing analysis by Mr Saran, far more sophisticated than the American perspectives. The world needs India as a UN Security Council Permanent member

A sophisticated FP talk by Ambassador Saran
US institute for "peace"?
- Peace is achieved through love unlike Murican *attirude* of Hard Power!
Please give one example of where peace was achieved in geopolitics through, as you call it, "love". It's a great idea in a John Lennon song, but in realpolitik those who dare, win!
@@ninadbhave5133so don't act you as holy. The American deep state has a simple problem White man problems
The ambassador has beautifully staved off the wolf pack..
It's a 🐕 pack
Ambassador Saran didn’t mince words. It’s hard to believe US experts don’t know implications of continuous war with Russia.
Their will def have to be decision made soon . The Russian economy wont last much longer
United States and peace???? 😂
Ridiculous!
It is possibly the sickest joke yet.
Be in a friend of US is very very dangerous
Fucking england protest east india terrorist company
and being a friend to Russia is not ?
@@user-il2er3uo8h It's worked out pretty well for India so far! Does the US have a single "friend"? Opportunistic allies in UK and Israel, yes. Grudging allies in Germany and France, yes. Silent partners in Saudi Arabia and Japan? Sure. Dependents? Plenty. Friends? not so much! And Kissinger pretty much echoed that when he talked about there being no permanent friends and enemies in politics. The US has traditionally thought in fairly short term spans in geopolitical terms. They've propped up dictators, toppled elected governments, and generally been bulls in china shops. The British were downright malevolent in the messes they created; the Americans have been more like well intentioned dolts.
@@user-il2er3uo8h probably not. They dont interfere as much.
@@parthajitjana2222 they shorter answer would be who dont they interfere with ?
Hate the way Americans talk about everybody else so condescendingly. “Mr Modi has given some advise to Putin” speaks insultingly about two great world leaders, both of whom are more competent than last 5 American presidents put together.
That old man is so stupid
A dictator just giving some advice to another dictator
@@Wise101 I don't remember Biden giving any advise to Netanyahu. When was that?
@@Wise101How I love these arrogant western comments.
Putin is a chtuiya. Why are you demeaning Modiji by comparing him with Putin?
First they create war and they look for peace 🕊️ . What a bunch of Hypocrites 😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This interview is one of the most revealing and insightful ...Mr Saran is candid and has a vision and capabilty much above the average and He is truly exceptional...Truly a great man and strategic thinker
Main culprit and curse of Humanity and Democracy is USA talking about these things... whats a joke..... Humanity saviour Dropped Nuclear bombs in Nagasaki and Hiroshima.....try to remove Viatanam...but viatanam given kicked on USA forces Butt and sent back them where they belongs 😅😅😅😅...same Repeated in Afganistan Taliban....😂
You talk as if they dropped atomic bombs on innocents. Imperial Japan had been on a warpath since the early 1930s. Ever heard of the "rape of Nanking"? They dropped biological weapons on Chinese cities, turned entire villages of Korean women into brothels, showed incredible brutality in every conflict, and had no intention of surrender. The US finally had a weapon of true mass destruction. What did you expect it to do after 4 years of war, drop flowers?
@@ninadbhave5133 Whatever Fact can't prove USA is innocent....It's main culprit country of world...
@@ninadbhave5133how about your allies in Europe most of them were or still are colonial power. Eg France you still supported them in vietnam. You still didn't say anything to France when they are sucking African resources . And the struggle for their independence is ignored but still you are democratic power.
@@LunarMonarch-bc5eh First of all, I’m not American. Second of all, we are talking about WWII, not Vietnam. Nobody thinks now that the US going into Vietnam or for that matter into Iraq in 2003 was a good thing. For one, it destabilised those regions. For another it reeked of imperialism. Let’s not forget that Vietnam ended because the US pulled out because of domestic pressure unlike anything ever seen before. Ever seen anything like that happening anywhere else in the world? That’s what makes it a democratic power
Excellent analysis by hon. Amb. Pankaj Saran!
No country in the world can dictate terms to India. India will protect its core interests. No matter what.
Mr Saran was top notch. At the same time I'm embarrassed by the lack of sophistication off my fellow Indians in this comment section 😂
Be embarrassed. You are that kind of people..who suck up to white skin people. We had enough of your types.
Brilliant exposition of strategic thinking and analysis by Ambassador Saran... very eloquently conveyed.
First time I see a mind as sharp and clear as Dr JaiShankar.
😊😊😊
"Bharat-Russia relationship is the only constant the last 7 decades of geopolitical history."
This statement given by EAM Dr. S. Jaishankar sums up the discussion.
The simple answer to Ashley Tellis' question of how India and USA, with opposing views on the Russia-Ukraine conflict, can square the circle, is THAT THEY REALLY CANT.
Since America is not directly involved in the war and India NOT AT ALL, the best they can do is to maintain their bilateral relations going, despite the strain of divergent views.
He is a deep state troll
But why is India so keen to close to the western world?
@@kabzaifywe are keen to be close to the whole world. When china was formed, we wanted to be friendly with them till they attacked us. As with even pakistan. We try but if it doesn't work, it doesn't work. What can one do? Let the chips fall as they may. If one wants to be indias enemy, we are game. Try us.
@@kabzaify for the fear of China.
@@DipakBose-bq1vv but Russia is best friends with China right ?
Why India Russia relations are strong -: Russia don't want to changed us, and happy with the way we are - May be. 🙏
Ambassador Saran's analysis is a singularly interesting one,given its depth and width.
Ambassador did a great job, not sure if that's what those present were interested or happy to hear though.😊
Hypocrisy is our fundamental right- USA !!
PLIZ!!!!
Chinese comment on Arunachal pradesh and Russian comment on Ukraine has no similarities. Dont insult the intelligence of our ambassador
maybe soon it will ? birds of a feather flock together u know ?
Modi team ❤❤❤
Happy to see two great countries to play a greater role in the international arena.
Strong India is a must for world peace.
Indian people never forget war times Frendship of 1 Russia 2 Israel. After 2014 nation intrest priority no. 1
Excellent analysis of dynamics between the global powers and why its good for west and India not to push Russia for short term gains👍
India Russia is the most successfully partnership of our century and has held firm against all odds. Why is there so much fuss about it?
Bcz there is none like that relation anywhere in the world. This makes them jealous.
Very succinctly put. Well done.
successful how ? What do u think will happen to that "partnership" when Russia has no economy left ? what will they trade ? Oil and gas wont get u too far with EV cars storming the market .
@@user-il2er3uo8h not a likely occurrence. Anyway why are you inserting yourself in india russia relations? You are neither nor russian. Why not mind your business?
@@isacr4063 because the last I checked I have a right to my own opinion and plan to tell it . thank u for the chance 😉
❤India❤Russia ❤ why you are jealous of such good friendship.. Your ally in South Asia is pakistan not india
Russia/USSR has historically been the most trustworthy partner of independent india. Russias credibility has been built over decades of trust thru support and actions. India should never abandon true and tried partners for new fine weather friends. But its always a good idea to have multiple friends- France, Israel etc are good options. USA is also an option because its a superpower and only because of that. Trust is not that high.
Russia's only credibility is that it if your their neighbor they will invade u sooner or later .
Long live India 🇮🇳 and Russia 🇷🇺 friendship
🇮🇳🤝🇷🇺
Indians do not forget favors in life.If you ask any child in India which country is our friend, he will without hesitation say Russia, because he knows that Russia helped us in 1971 when America was about to attack.
This peace institute does everything except work for peace.
This was a great interview/talk.
Great talk by Ambassador Saran! Multi-dimensional talk.
de dollarization that should be the long term goal ......
except that their are 220 countries using it 🤣🤣😂😂
It's already happening
Wonderful discussion.
in INDIA all seniors always says that friend of US very harmful than the enemy ⚡⚡
I am glad people are talking about this issue.
It's really a worth be part of your very informative discussion.. Thanks 🙏
Unites states institute of hypocrisy.
It all started with that blabber mouth zelenski talking about ukr joining nato
United States Institute of Peace is an oxymoron! 😂
Good point by speaker
that was an incredible perspective.
Very good discussion
Russia never tries to teach India how to run a country or what its foreign policy should be. Non interference in internal affairs is the binding force between these two nations.
That is why Indians say Russia is a time tested friend
very good replies by our Pankaj Saran. Kudos to him in answering very difficult questions so effortlessly. Now I know, why he held such an important portfolio in the Government and what he is doing now. Well Done for his patriotism and hard work in International Politics. 👏
Relation of India to another country in government to government vary time to time. But people like Russia.
❤ Russia ❤ from Bharat(India)
🇮🇳🤝🇷🇺. 👈 best friends
I thought Russia was best friends with China ? Wasn't Putin just in China ? Why didn't he stop in India since he was in the neighborhood ?
@@user-il2er3uo8hHe doesn't need to show anything . People of India know it.
Indian media need to bring american diplomats and ask some though questions that punctures American alleged purist opinion about themselves.
Im sure he got paid to be there . politicians get paid for these talks all the time in America
Involvement of third party is the key issue and reason for the conflict. Well articulated.
Bharatiya insight of universe recognises very dynamic energies and karma how world should work towards harmony across the universe, not just planet earth or for humans only or just the enlightened west.
Brahama, Vishnu and Shiva trilogy comes very handy to understand how Vishnu force of Indian is working in the world of conflict and help stablising the world, not destroying it.
I want to change the role between these two people and enjoy the talks
What I understand from our re-invented foreign policy: "keep your interests foremost in any communication with any other person/group/society/think tank/country".
1. Russia will be sitting on the fences in case of an Indo-China conflict
2. West has to understand that the Indo-Russia relationship was based on cooperation with no strings attached during the cold war period where as west always have a give & take approach to any collaboration
3. In case of USA, India is well aware that any blind friendship with USA is dangerous as stated by the ex official Henry Kissinger TO BE ENEMY OF USA IS DANGEROUS & TO BE FRIEND IS FATAL
4. India is also aware that a Indo-China conflict is in the west interest as that will allow the western hegemony to be continued for next 100+ years
Very good question by Ashley.USA & India has to converge at the same priority level on China.USA is distracted in Ukraine their main adversary now is China & not Russia.
Welcome to the US India ❤❤😮😮
US should directly talk with Russia to end war and have peace . India can be important mediator to have peace between Russia and Ukraine war .
literally said principles of sovereignty and ter.integrity apply only to 'big' countries
🇷🇺 🤝 🇮🇳
Brilliant. Great questions both by the moderator as well as the audience. Equally competant, in depth and honest answeres by Mr.Saran in the most diplomatic/ forthcoming language possible. I'm truely impressed.
As an Indian, if i may say and Majority of Indians say #INDIASTANDSWITHUSA. I like Saran, a good candid conversation.
Few things to note here with respect to India-US relationship and in comparison to Russian relationship..
1. India-US relationship is very young dating back to probably 20-30 yrs BUT it has been ROCK SOLID. Thanks to Americans policymakers for tilting the NEEDLE. Personally, I feel there is still a long way to go and I'm confident the BEST DAYS ARE AHEAD!!
2. India-US relationship is mainly driven by "STRONG PEOPLE-PEOPLE" relationship. You have so many Indians and Americans across continent that are FAMILIES, FRIENDS, BUSINESS, EDUCATION, INNOVATION, SCIENCE and Even RELIGION (for example HARE KRISHNA"s. So many Americans travel to India to visit pilgrimage centers in India). In contrast, You don't see any of these between INDIANS and RUSSIANS. Honestly, I have hardly had any conversations with Russians let alone supporting them.
In contrast, India-Russia relationship is mainly between diplomats between New Delhi and Moscow on geopolitical front. If i may say its fading and not so strong. I have hardly seen any INDIANS HAVING RUSSIAN friends but on the opposite you have so many Indian and Americans working together on EVERY FRONT!!
If i may ask- HOW MANY INDIANS ARE in RUSSIA? HOW MANY INDIAN STUDENTS GO TO RUSSIA? HOW MANY INDIANS have RUSSIAN Friends? HOW MANY INDIAN and RUSSIANs work together? Answer is - PRACTICALLY NONE for these. This india and Russia relationship almost looks like BACKDOOR relationship
3. And Indian EX- Diplomat Sitting in Washington and having a open candid conversations with American policy makers is itself a sign how much Americans and Indians are comfortable working together and being as friends. You don't see that between RUSSIAN and INDIAN policy makers having this conversations openly. It is likely between PUTIN and or SOME (Priest class guy) from new Delhi making foreign policy decisions for 1.6 billion Indians.
4. India and US are rooted in DEMOCRATIC values. Hence, we are NATURAL PARTNERS and FRIENDS.
5. Lastly , If i may remind that US has a strong relationship and are friends with British, Even though British colonized india for 250-300 yrs and brutally killed millions of Indians. So in this case, IS IT FAIR TO ASK AMERICANS NOT HAVE RELATIONSHIP WITH BRITISH/UK? I don't think it's India's business to say that!
6. As many know, India is 140th POOREST COUNTRY in world. India's MUCH BIGGER TASK is INDIA'S ECONOMY and GIVING DECENT STANDARD OF LIVING TO Indians. Modi is less worried about Geopolitics!
To conclude, These storms and Bumps will be there along the journey but we must commit to each other and work together.
I'm LONG and ROOTING for STRONG INDIA-US relationship!! God bless AMERICA and INDIA!!
While Russia could be getting a bit warmer with China it understand the risks. Hence it will want a strong India to keep China in check and there by mitigate the risk of China becoming all too powerful to the deteriment of Russia.
As an Indian I stand with Ukraine-always have.
War has stopped suddenly 😅😅😅😂😂😂
As a American I stand with Russia and always will.
Very good best of luck Indian government
Very interesting and helpful for understanding how India sees Russia (like seeing the captain of your ship get into a dinghy and row away toward the enemy).
I dont think you get the India-Russia relations. We consider each other as friend let alone enemies. The USA is no ally...we have made sure time and again to the US. We r just partners. Pertners on specific interests.
@@abhimanusingh66 Is it true that Russia helped India, and that the US tried to help Pakistan from losing Bangladesh? My comment about the captain in the dinghy was meant as Russia going over to China's side. My hope is that India (all good people) will condemn Russia for starting the war. Germany thought buying gas from Russia would cement their friendship but it didn't work; is there a lesson there for India?
@@StewartChaimson India and the Soviet Union had a defence treaty kinda similar to the one the us has with japan, phillipines etc. the us had the same treaty with pakistan back in the day. long story short pakistan attacked India, India attacked them back and the usa tried to attack India on pakistan's behalf but when India informed the Soviet Union that the us warships are approaching to attack them the Soviets warned the americans of consequences if they attacked India. at the end the us backed off and so did the soviets and the war between India and pakistan ended with India winning it.
Democracy secondary to War machine business 😊
#Russia #India and #Israel are unbreakable bond may be some little bit unfamiliarities made or happens but it is ok with us. We don't forget our true and good friends anyway anytime whatever happens. Conflicts and conspiracies will be create between us but we know how to prepare,fight and handle these things.
Russia and Israel are at the opposite sides of Ukraine and Gaza conflicts
@@aAverageFan Yes. But we aren't.
@@aAverageFan It is not India's problem if Russia and Isreal are not friends. Thats their choice. But it is in India's interest to be friends with both since we have a time tested relation with both.
One of the distinguishing features of India's foreign policy post 1947 which has remain consistent is to use the principles of Vishwamitra and Vasudheva Kutumbkam as norms to build India as a secure and safe Developing Democracy, the largest Democracy in the World with open, free fair and regular elections for electing its government at various levels. India's friendly policy towards Russia is an integral part of this foreign policy as it is with the Western Democracies. If China and Pakistan do not fit into this scheme of things, it is the choice of their national policy and their strategic policy of War towards India with whom both have a border dispute. The feature to note is that despite disputes and conflicts with each other, both Russia and the Western Democracies along with the world wide Non Aligned Movement has grown to accept India's foreign policy, which is in its own national interest and the objective progress of the Global Economy as a whole. This is one reason why the Western Democracies are prepared to continue future cooperation with India, even while India continues to build upon its past and present cooperation with Russia, even Eurasia.
Dr. Shri Prakash
Zelensky is planning a peace conference next month , and Russia is invited
It seems Ukranians are not interested in
In peace
How can u have a peace conference when one party is not invited
As an indian we stand with russia ,, because russia always supported india in the indo-pak war and usa supported pakistan and provided milotary equipments and aids to spred terrorirm in kashmir vally
I wish Jaishankar should be in this talk❤
Good lesson for more explore global strategy.
No one talks of perception of country, which is more important than any strategy, china never cultivated for his ambition to be most power ful, same usa earned the same becouse of sections,which affect individuals.
You should rename your channel 😂😂😂😂 it should be like US for conflicts 😂😂😂😂😂
USA wants peace.... Never saw that coming 😂
The US should worry about the backsliding of its democracy instead of worrying about India-Russia ties
Not about democracy but racism
Where weapon s of. Mass destruction how
Many lies any lunch war on any country in world😊
What a biggest joke of the century now US will teach us (indian) on how to pursue n established peace.
US and peace in same sentence 😂
Ukraine is Russia's Afghanistan= Soviet Union broke up post Afghanistan. Reason why Ukraine must win.
U should change institute's name to United States Institute of Conflict
I suggest that pl. talk on invasion of Europe by USA
USA and Peace in same sentence can’t swallow 😂

The russia, west and china story is like two rich brothers who were fighting for a long time with each one taking help from weak outsider to finally see that the weak out sider beat the heck out of both the brothers by taking advantage of hatred brother had for each other.
India isn't USA
27.40: if Russia is going closer with China then it is a greater threat to USA and Europe than India. Imagine they bring Cuba into that alliance as NATO is doing to Ukraine! A NATO type alliance between Russia and China will certainly be a first step on the way to world war 3.
Solution: get India to have a passage to Europe through the POK and Baltic states. Once Russia and Europe starts direct business with India then India will have a much stronger incentive, capability and lever to bring Russia and China apart.
