Modi-Putin Summit

"Everything that has happened on PM Narendra Modi's Russia visit is exactly what has happened in past summits. So in a sense, there's nothing extraordinary at all about the visit. If it has attracted attention, you mentioned the NATO Summit. So are we supposed to stop our foreign policy interactions because it's NATO's 75th anniversary?" Ambassador Pankaj Saran says on 'The Gist' with StratNews Global Associate Editor Amitabh P. Revi. He has been Ambassador Pankaj Saran India's Former Deputy National Security Adviser. A current member of the National Security Advisory Board (NSAB). An Ex-Envoy to Russia. And is currently Convenor of NatStrat.


PM on Russia-Ukraine Conflict

"Here is a country which has the ability to talk to all parties," Ambassador Saran says. "And to counsel them that they need to de-escalate. They need to return to the negotiating table." On intense international scrutiny of the annual Putin-Modi Summit, the ex-envoy points out, "We have had our land under occupation of the Chinese or by the Pakistanis. And we've seen Western leaders go to Beijing or to Islamabad. (French President) Macron or (German Chancellor) Scholtz or the Americans visiting Beijing in the last one year, when Beijing is sitting on occupied territory in India. Why should India play an extremely risky game of converting a friend into an adversary? I don't see any country in the world doing that. I don't see why we should do it.

India-Russia-China Dynamics

Ambassador Pankaj Saran pertinently asks, "Who has a stake to see a deterioration of the India-Russia relationship? Clearly, the West would like ties to atrophy. To weaken. To somehow get disrupted. But, the other party which is equally interested in this outcome is the Chinese. So you are at this ironical and paradoxical situation. Both Washington and Beijing have, for their own very different reasons, an interest in the weakening of the India- Russia relationship. But, the maintenance of the relationship is vital for both Russia and India

The Former Deputy NSA also discusses:

The dynamic between Russia, India and China.
A spurt in India buying Russian petroleum products.
The next stage of nuclear energy cooperation.
The bilateral trade target of $ 10illion by 2030.
Trade imbalance and payment mechanisms in national currencies.
Connectivity from the Arctic circle, the Vladivostok-Chennai sea corridor, & the INSTC.
Military supplies, spares and atmanirbharta.
Indians tricked into serving in the Russian military in the Ukraine war.
And how Russia sees itself on the global stage when the U.S. is in election mode and there's a possibility of Donald Trump's return.
