In the weekly press conference of the Indian Ministry of External Affairs, spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal today reacted to the issues related to the damage to the terror structure during the operation of the defense agreement between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, the US engineer’s death on the Chabahar port of Iran, the death of an Indian engineer in the US and the Operation Sindoor from the terrorists in Pakistan.
The comments of Indian Foreign Ministry spokesman Randhir Jaiswal indicate how important it is to maintain strategic vigilance and balance for India in the changing scenario of South Asia and West Asia. If seen, India’s reactions on occasional issues are not just diplomatic statements, but they determine the direction of long -term security, foreign policy and regional interests.

Let us tell you that the “Strategic Mutual Defense Agreement” between Riyadh and Islamabad has made global geopolitical analysts alert. Saudi Arabia’s financial power and Pakistan’s military capacity, especially if its atomic dimensions fall into a shared structure, can be a serious challenge to regional stability. India made careful reactions to this, clarifying that its partnership with Saudi Arabia is deep and multidimensional and expects India’s sensitivity to be taken care of in the agreement.
If seen, this attitude reflects India’s “balance diplomacy”. On the one hand, India is further strengthening energy, investment and security cooperation with Saudi Arabia, on the other hand it has to be cautious about the possible risks arising out of Saudi equations with Pakistan. There are double dimensions for India – one, deepening your interests with Saudi Arabia; Second, prevent Pakistan from any indirect profit of nuclear cooperation.
In addition, the decision to re -ban the Chabahar port of Iran at the Chabahar port of Iran directly affects India’s strategic project. Chabahar is not only the door to Afghanistan and Central Asia for India, but it is also seen as an alternative to the China -Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). India has said to continue dialogue with America in this context. If seen, this subject is not only commercial, but also from strategic point of view. If the Chabahar project of India stops, its access to Central Asia will be limited and Pakistan -China axis will get indirect benefits. Therefore, in the coming time, India will have to protect their interests by adopting flexible diplomacy with both America and Iran.
In addition, the Indian Ministry of External Affairs made it clear on the video of the recent terrorist organizations in Pakistan that the world is well aware that the government of Pakistan and the army are in alliance with terrorists. Recently, during India’s operation “Sindoor”, terrorist groups had suffered heavy damage and have created deep uneasiness within Pakistan. India’s message is clear that terrorism is no longer a bilateral problem but a global crisis. Let us tell you that India is constantly underlining that the world will have to make shared and concerted efforts to deal with terrorism across the border. In this context, the confession of terrorists from within Pakistan serves as evidence in front of the international fraternity.
In addition, the formation of an interim government under the leadership of Sushila Karki in Nepal is a positive sign of stability in the neighboring region from India’s point of view. India has reiterated Nepal’s commitment to support its long -term development partnership and democratic stability. Stability in the Himalayan neighbor is essential for both the protection of India’s northern borders and cultural -economic relations.
In addition, the death of an Indian engineer in California in police firing has shocked the Indian community. The Ministry of External Affairs has clarified that it is in constant communication with local authorities and is providing assistance to the family. If seen, this incident is associated with the widespread question of safety of overseas Indians, which outlines the human dimension of India -American relations.
Looking at the strategic importance of all these issues, the Saudi -Pakistan Defense Agreement is an indication for India that it will have to further strengthen its relations with the Gulf countries to balance any strategic benefits of Pakistan. In addition, the Chabahar project is the backbone of India’s “connectivity diplomacy”. American restrictions on this create new challenges, whose solution is possible only through multilateral dialogue. On the other hand, evidence found from within Pakistan makes the international community aware that terrorism is not only a concern but a global threat to India. In addition, political stability in Nepal is auspicious sign for India’s border security and diplomatic interests. On the other hand, the security of Indians in countries like America has now become a sensitive dimension of India’s foreign policy.
Complained, Randhir Jaiswal’s press conference gives a glimpse that India is using balanced, cautious and active diplomacy to protect its national interests amid major challenges. In the coming time, India will have to make its foreign policy more comprehensive on energy, security, connectivity and migrant communities – all these fronts. This will strengthen his strategic autonomy and global role.
