EAM Jaishankar Addresses Indian Diaspora In Spain

Date:

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has emphasised the India’s positioning in the world today. He said that all the countries seeing the situation in the world think that having good ties is in the interest of many nations.

While addressing an Indian community event in Spain on Tuesday, Jaishankar said that India has taken its slogan of ‘sabka saath, sabka vikas and sabka vishwas’ to the world. He said that world wants to understand India’s positioning and ideas.

Jaishankar said, “I come back to the invitation that I got, when a foreign ministry and ambassadors of another country ask you to come and speak to them, it is worth thinking, why is that so and my sense is there are three reasons today, one – India’s positioning today is very important that all countries in the world today, seeing the situation of the world today, think that having good ties with India is in the interest of many, many countries. So, they want to understand our positioning. The second is our capabilities. They feel that this Bharat is new Bharat. Our economy is at fifth position.”

Everyone says India will reach the third spot in few years. You all will remember, 10 years back, we were at 10th or 11th position. World recognises the pace at which progress is happening in India today. So, first is positioning and second is capabilities. And the third is actually our ideas, that India is today seen as contributing to a global conversation. That when the world is looking at many, many challenges, somewhere on different issues, we get some ideas, some initiatives. And if you want to hear about that, I would like to explain a little bit about that. So, let me say a few words about the positioning,” he added.

He recalled Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Russia and Ukraine in 2024. He stated PM Modi is able to speak to both Isral and Iran. He said that India is in a position to be members of both Quad and BRICS.
