Topic: China

China is a South Asian country, sharing borders with 14 countries including India. Its significance lies in its rise in the region and hegemonic influence over smaller countries through loans and the Belt and Road Initiative. China and India have fought a major war in the 60s and have disputes over the Aksai Chin and LAC, and tensions over the Indo-Pacific.

Abki Baar, U-turn sarkar

Shekhar Gupta -

Making sense of Xi slap

Shekhar Gupta -
Timed perfectly with Xi’s arrival in Ahmedabad was that of nearly a 1,000 PLA soldiers in Ladakh’s Chumar area. There is a pattern to China’s actions: it is testing India’s resolve.

Them and US

SGIN -
It would be an error to see in US envoy Richard Holbrooke’s uncharacteristic near-apology a vindication of India’s rising power. It is, though, indicative of the rise of a new & weakening America.

Opportunity, made in China

Shekhar Gupta -

A new project Pakistan

SGIN -
India must engage with the rest of the world in search for that new creative solution which may, ultimately, be a variant of the earlier one, except Pakistan does not have a Musharraf equivalent.

Chinese checkers

SGIN -
China could be our threat number one, but it is more likely to threaten us with more plastic toys aimed at our markets than Dong Feng missiles zeroing in on Raisina Hill.

Retired Indian Army Colonel working with UN killed in Rafah, Israel orders probe

Shivani Mago -
Eight months into the war, this is believed to be the first 'international' casualty to be reported. 46-year-old Waibhav Kale joined UNDSS two months ago ‘to make a difference’. 

National Interest

What’s common between Netflix Chamkila and Trudeau’s trouble-infested Canada? They don’t get Punjab

Shekhar Gupta -
Even in the weeks leading up to Chamkila’s assassination there were massacres every other day. To airbrush all of this is sheer intellectual cowardice if not a crime.
