India is enhancing its global partnerships from a position of strength, emphasized by External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar at the Global Economic Cooperation conference. With recent trade deals as evidence, he highlighted India's commitment to ongoing reforms.
Jaishankar noted the weaponisation of production and finance, and uncertainties from bilateral tariffs affecting demand. He stressed the importance of economic diversification and self-reliance, citing recent reductions in US tariffs on Indian goods as a positive step.
Despite progress, challenges remain, with opposition leader Rahul Gandhi critiquing the trade deal with the US. Nonetheless, Jaishankar underlined India’s rising global relevance in technology, skills, and economic security in an unpredictable world.
