India Navigates The 'Impossible Trinity' of Diplomacy - All Things Policy
Description
As negotiations with Beijing continue, relations with Moscow strengthen, and contentions with Washington become evident, New Delhi finds itself navigating the 'impossible trinity' of its diplomacy. I.e., it cannot maximise one relationship in this superpower triad without creating concerns in at least one of the other two ties. Hence, delicately balancing relations with China, the US, and Russia arguably presents the most important foreign policy question for India in contemporary geopolitics.
Amit Kumar argues this, in conversation with Anushka Saxena, in this latest video episode of Takshashila's daily public policy podcast, 'All Things Policy'. If you too have an opinion on India-China relations in specific, do not forget to participate in Takshashila's 2025 'China Challenge' Survey: http://bit.ly/ChinaSurvey2025.
