In Muscat, PM Modi accused the previous Congress-led governments of corruption. Some things were stalled due to the indecisiveness and lethargy of the governments (in the last)... It is my priority to kickstart those things," he said. Now I can say it with firm belief that intelligent people from all walks of life, renowned scientists too, even if they are earning big abroad but now they are eager and happy to come back and settle India for even lesser incomes." Indians were feeling pessimistic about their own country till recently, but my government has tried its best during its first year in office to change that." Whatever India is achieving today, that achievement is not only of India, but it is almost one-fifth of humanity.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi becomes the first world leader to have a face-to-face meeting with his frequently cited “friend” Emmanuel Macron ...

With so many common interests at stake, Modi can count on his friend Macron to understand New Delhi’s position on Ukraine, even if the French president is personally unhappy with India’s fence-sitting. The stakes are high for India since it has a contested 2,500 kilometre border with China that has sparked a devastating war and occasional deadly skirmishes. The two leaders are Emmanuel Macron of France, who has spent hours talking to Putin, and the Indian leader who has met Putin umpteen number of times. Modi has not held a single press conference in India since becoming prime minister in 2014 and the decision to skip questions was taken at the insistence of the Indian delegation, according to German officials. “I personally think there are only two major leaders today who can pick up the phone and talk to Putin – apart from the Chinese leader of course. On the other hand, India's position has earned praise from Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, who lauded India during his visit last month for judging “the situation in its entirety, not just in a one-sided way”. The position though has been difficult to maintain, resulting in occasional eruptions such de Gaulle’s temporary pulling out of NATO command only to get back into the Western military alliance fold. In France, it comes from de Gaulle’s diplomacy a long time ago. A prickly anti-US suspicion, which translates into Russia-soft planks, characterises nationalist positions in both countries. “During our talks we will take stock of various bilateral and global issues.” Breaking with chancellery norms, reporters were not permitted to ask questions after the two leaders read out their statements. “Congratulations to my friend @EmmanuelMacron on being re-elected,” began Modi’s Twitter felicitations.

Narendra Modi's Europe visit reaffirms India's diplomatic heft despite ... (Firstpost)

Prime Minister Narendra Modi visits an emerging 21st century 'Concert of Europe' and discovers common ground in India's ties with the West.

Even the survival of the EU and NATO is not certain in the medium term. Today, while the Europeans and Americans fight with Russia, it is countries like China and India that will inherit the earth. The return to a possible Gold Standard is a real possibility, at least in Russia. Poland is eyeing the territory it lost to Ukraine after WWII. Moldova, not yet part of NATO, is on the Russian radar. China may not be doing anything to annoy the Europeans or Americans at present unless one counts its solid purchases of Russian oil and gas and the support it is providing to Russia’s financial systems. But in those days, the rest of the world, Asia, Africa, the Middle East were just so many colonial resources. India is increasingly seen as the pharmacy to the world, not least of all due to its affordable vaccine exports on an emergency basis to many countries. Germany, which Prime Minister Modi visited first, and France, the last stop on his tour, are the mainstays of the European Union, and its biggest economies. These challenges have come on top of slowed economies, high defence costs suddenly thrust on them by the situation in Ukraine, and potential increases in tensions with China, now allied with Russia. A Cold War with no end unless the EU and NATO roll back from their Eastern expansionism. Its purpose was to ensure stability by general consensus, maintain the European balance of power, its political boundaries, and spheres of influence. India showed its willingness to make deep cuts in its carbon footprint at the last Paris-based Climate Talks. China was less forthcoming.
