Global Faultlines podcast | Did India read the war on Iran wrong?
This podcast episode examines how the shifting geopolitical landscape in West Asia since October 7 impacts India's foreign policy. It questions whether India can maintain its strategy of multi-alignment amidst escalating regional conflicts.
Why it matters
India's ability to balance relationships with competing global powers is essential for its economic stability and regional security interests.
Since October 7, West Asia has witnessed a cascade of crises, from the war in Gaza, attacks on Red Sea shipping, to the fall of the Assad regime in Syria, and direct military confrontation between Israel and Iran. Together, these events have reshaped the region’s geopolitical landscape.
The content frames the issue as a strategic inquiry rather than advocating for a specific foreign policy shift.
