Can we see the new India-Middle East-Europe corridor as an alternative to China's BRI?
in the G20 summit in delhi, modi launched told the world India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor.
it is a multination project looking to build road, water and rail network in Asia, Middle east and Europe for easing trade among these countries. it is similar to China's BRI which looks to do the same.
As China and India can be considered rivals, the project also acts as geopolitical tool to lessen the influcne of China.
What are your thoughts?
besides all the similarities in the two projects, there is one striking difference. India is not doing any of it to exert control on less developed nations. We are not looking for small countries to be get stuck in a debt-trap like China does. Sabka Sath Sabka Vikas has taken an international meaning.
I hope the project gets to fruition stage the soonest.
True that.
But to add to what you just said - Sabka Saath. Sabka Vikas. Sabka Vishwas.
The new global currency is 'Trust', and India Bharat is surely leading the way as being the most trusted partner of vartious nation. Every time a country is in trouble, Bharat goes forward and helps them. We even helped Turkey in its time of need, despite it being a sort of enemy nation. Ukraine wants Bharat's assistance. We will also extend a helping hand to Morocco.
Time to be voice of the Global South not because of our military or economic might, but because of who we are as a nation and what we represent.
