India’s strategic autonomy must be seen as an attempt to isolate China, which will be beneficial to the super power US and the democratic and developed West retaining their competitive edge over their new economic and military rival i.e. the prowling communist ruled Asian giant.
The US’s recent past’s most politically experienced President Joe Biden may be following the diplomacy of ‘nothing else but nation’s interest matter’, but while dealing with Indo-Pacific region he should know that this policy is more dangerous to adhere to for his nation which wants to retain the Super Power status with “America Is Back” pronouncement.
Is there a vested interest on the part of West like Britain, a constituency of Western forces in Afghanistan, had when they left India pushing the region into chaos and bloodshed which haven’t yet subsided even after seven and half decades of self-rule?
Over the years, the sea has been literally encroached -first of the kind in world history- by none other than the world’s new super power communist ruled People’s Republic of China (PRC).
The entire world is up in arms against the nefarious Chinese designs, there are conspiracy theories abound and most of them have substance and credibility as to how this virus was developed in a Wuhan lab to target the United States and disrupt its economy.
