When Australia’s Prime Minister Albanese invited the Prime Minister and said in his heavily accented introduction, ‘Mr Modi is the Boss’, on the stage in Sydney, it was evident that India’s foreign policy had at least come a full circle. It’s done. Body-language has great importance in diplomacy. If we look at the body language of the Prime Ministers of Australia and India on that stage in Sydney, it was one of openness, friendliness and informal formality. His laughter was free and meeting-meeting was easy, not suppressed under the burden of diplomacy and politics. That’s why, when the Prime Minister of Australia compared PM Modi to ‘Bruce Springsteen’, the usually serious External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar was also sitting back laughing. After all, comparing the popularity of his PM with a Rockstar, why wouldn’t the External Affairs Minister like that Rockstar, whose Rockstar has sold more than 70 million records. After all, Jaishankar is also known to be an arrogant foreign minister, so any popularity earned is a bonus for him.
‘Utishtha Bharat’ in the changing world order
Prime Minister Modi had once said that India will neither talk to anyone by bowing down nor by showing eyes, so now the same thing is happening. There has been a big change in Indian foreign policy. As we can also see with the PM arriving in Hiroshima for the G7 meeting. There the G7 countries openly warned China and Russia and agreed about the interests of India. India had gone to participate there as the President of the G20 and strongly spoke on that platform not only about India, but also about all those countries which have been neglected by the western countries till now. If Papua New Guinea broke its tradition and welcomed PM Modi, then there is a reason for that. Till now the island countries which were left out of Indian foreign policy due to ‘being too far away’, since 2014 not only FIPIC was formed by taking those 14 island countries together, but till now its three summits have also been held. Are. Vaccine-diplomacy during Corona is also a big reason for this. That’s why, Fiji and Papua New Guinea have also honored the Indian PM with their highest honour. This is the heyday of Indian foreign policy. Now, India is being vocal, aggressive and protective about its interests. India’s growing economy is a big reason for this. Apart from this, the stranglehold of Russia and China is also a factor. Many in European countries are now looking at India as a reliable partner and India is also behaving in the same way. India is now firmly putting forth its point. It is now being assertive.
Be it America or Australia, the common factor is India
India is now emerging as a new pole in Asia. Its economy is on the strength side, while there is a shadow of recession on many countries of Europe including America. America is trapped in such a vicious cycle of debt that it is at risk of default. He had to cancel his tour of Papua New Guinea and Australia to handle his domestic situation. Despite this, the Indian Prime Minister continued his tour of Australia. Two signals went straight from this. Firstly, the meeting of Quad was also held on the sidelines of G7, due to which the world came to know about the importance of Quad and China could not do anything other than whining. Secondly, India has made it clear whether it is America or Russia, India is no longer dependent on any country. Instead of looking at the face, he will do his own trick and will make similar policies which will be in his interest. This is the reason why India did not stop buying oil from Russia even after the EU frowned, yes, our foreign minister did teach a little history and a little diplomacy to the countries of Europe from time to time on different forums. Is. During his two-day visit to Australia, Prime Minister Modi also mentioned cricket during his talks with his Australian counterpart Albanese and also invited the PM there for the Cricket World Cup.
India is now playing on both sides. He is also doing his marketing culturally, whether it is Yoga-Pranayama or music and art. Big fans and fans of India are ready even through cricket and films. As the Indian PM also said that India-Australia relations have reached E through C and D, so in that E only the meaning of energy, economy and education was hidden. All these three issues are largely related to the youth and their aspirations.
Along with this, due to its strong economy and large market, it also has more bargaining power. India has a large English-speaking, tech-savvy youth and a huge market at the same time. Add to this India’s trustworthiness, being an ambassador of peace and other spices, then such a powerful friend is prepared, which from Europe to America and from Nordic countries to South Pacific countries want to keep with them. It is difficult to ignore India now in the changing geopolitical circumstances. The country’s central authority is strong and stable, so the domestic situation is also such that initiative should be taken and talks on foreign policy. If there is stability in the country, then India is getting time to look outside and it is deciding its foreign policy afresh.
