Indian leaders are reduced to hoping Biden won’t make same mistakes they did, will look beyond who’s in power at the moment and focus on long-term ties.
Macron, Erdogan & Khan currently face grave political, economic crises at home. Their concern for French Muslims is hard to square with silence over persecution of Muslims in China.
In the letter, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan highlighted 'cycles of violence' and said that Muslim leaders need to reach out to Western countries and educate them on Islam.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan had called for the boycott amid a widening rift with France following President Macron stating that Islam was a religion in crisis all over the world.
Erdogan has been feuding with French President Macron over his characterization of Islam as a religion 'in crisis' & crackdown on Islamists since the beheading of a French teacher.
It's too late for Trump to learn from Erdogan & Modi, his fellow elected demagogues who continue to win elections despite presiding over multiple political and economic disasters.
For Erdogan, the absence of a red flag is a green flag. If you’re looking for a unifying theory, it is this: Turkey’s president does what he does because he gets away with it.
From shows capturing Kashmiri youth’s imagination to money trickling in via NGOs & businesses, steady increase seen in Turkish influence & projection of President Erdogan as role model.
One such website has drawn particular scrutiny for spreading fake stories that have upset not only the Indian but also foreign defence firms by falsely attributing misinformation.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
India will regret having embraced Trump and fascism so openly. Biden knows and will be reminded by Jayapal, Saunders, Omar, Tlaib etc in the Democratic party that India has become a right wing fascist state that has more in common with thugs like Bolsonaro, Orban and Netanyahu than liberal Canada or New Zealand.
Expect condemnation of anti-Muslim pogroms, human rights abuses in Kashmir and less support against China. The days of India getting a free-ride as they did under Trump are gone. India needs the US a lot more than the other way around. It better play nice as the Dems want a more liberal and stable world than anti-China obsessed Trump!
The Hindutva fellows sense that Biden and Harris will not be the same to them as Trump. Before they could show off Modi with Trump. That will not happen with Biden. The RSS had built Hindu extremist networks in the US and abroad, and they were not challenged. Now the minorities and Hindu liberals abroad have also got organised to counter the RSS. They exposed and ended the chances of RSS collaborators like Tulsi Gabbard and other such people.
No sir ‘you’ will regret writing this piece. Not our leaders. Americans wouldn’t let the thugs sell their country to a communist China that easy.. with all respect to Mr. Biden.. it’s not about him, it’s the destructive hypnotising mind controlling powers that are planning to take over by having a weak authority, that’s a real threat to the entire world not just fit states. Only the discerning know what’s truly happening behind the curtains.. it is quite horrifying to be honest. Eye has not seen ear has not heard heart has not perceived the plans of the wicked..
Modi sold Indian land to China recently. You had no problem with that.
No sir you will regret writing this article when the truth about Biden and his tycoon mob is exposed and that will be soon.
You underestimated Americans.. they can’t be bought for cash. They wouldn’t let the country turned to communist China on a silver platter by Mr. Biden.. not anytime soon.
Mihir, thank goodness it’s only your opinion and it’s terribly far removed from genuine. Asking the Most High for discernment for you that your eyes will be opened to see the truth as it is, not what it seems to you, according to your mind’s conditioning.
So is the truth that Biden will be embracing Modi and holding shows with him ? You don’t believe that, I do not see any Hindus doing havans for Biden, as they did for Trump.
L’etat c’est Moi. National interest is safe in the Editor’s quill.
Utter rubbish. Relations between countries also depend so much on personal comfort level.
Indira Gandhi and Nixon (very cold, hence USS Enterprise sent to Bay of Bengal durin 1971 war.) Contrast with and Nixon and Chinese premier which ended China’s isolation and provided the platform for its rise.
The stupidity in this piece is so blatant! It stares You in the face. I would like to assign it to his ideological fanaticism, but still one should have some basic ability to acknowledge the truth! In this instance, let us turn the clock back to Obama era. PM Modi, embraced him as a friend, hugged him. The leaders struck a bonhomie which was evident. Modi referred to President Obama as ‘Barack’, at which a lot of hue and cry was made by the left liberal fanatic inferiority complexed journalists like this author. The moral of the story is, that Nations are much bigger than the leaders. These politicians know that. They find ways to work with each other. These stupid leftist commentators, with limited brains, looking to get paid by clickbait articles do not wish to acknowledge this. This is why these guys are so poorly paid, because they deserve it.
You are putting on a brave face, but you know in your heart that Biden will not have the same relationship as your chai wallah.
Mihir sharma who otherwise writes well seems to have mistaken this time. Modi would have put on the same show even if it was biden and not trump. Are you all so nuts? Do u think biden or his team would act like high schoolers who are sulking because trump was given a good show? Frankly this reflects how warped we are in our own domestic political narratives without substance.
Modi will manage to put on another show for biden. No issues. As far are right wingers being close to right wingers….Modi is incredibly different from trump and bolsanaro. just like Japan’s Abe. If you don’t get that, either you are not looking at facts objectively or just ignoring them.
‘Modi will manage to put on another show for biden.’
That is the usual Hindu way of touching the feet of more powerful than them.
Modi may be willing to touch Biden’s feet, however, Biden is not going to relate to Modi in the same way. In Biden’s entourage, there are people who will warn him that Modi is a fascist and has assaulted minorities. Trump did not have such people in his team, and as he said, he liked the meanest people.
If Modi was stupid enough not to understand whom to hug whom not to hug he would be writing articles and not running a country with two clear mandates.
To trivialize the embrace as if it was a social hug is rather bankrupt thinking.
That’s right Vijay.
Mihir it is in fact you who will regret writing this piece. Not our leaders. Americans wouldn’t let the thugs sell their country to a communist China that easy.. with all respect to Mr. Biden.. it’s not about him, it’s the destructive hypnotising mind controlling powers that are planning to take over by having a weak authority, that’s a real threat to the entire world not just fit states.

What can India contribute in America’s struggle against China, when America can see India cannot even defend its territory ?
And if China took more territory, you think Biden will come and drive out China ?
You are just a delusional BJP Hindu, the proverbial dumb bhakth.

Phew it’s only an opinion. Rejected ??

As if Biden going to call Modi for his next campaign. How about Biden come india and ask for bjp or some other party?
Demonitization also was long visioned act, but why dont you call for another #demo? the so called very effective financial surgical strike
Dumb, stupid, fake article in the worst newspaper across the entire globe. Just the headline makes me wanna puke ?
