UNDER Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, New Delhi is joining China and Brazil in seeking leadership of the Global South in an increasingly multipolar world.
India’s global diplomacy has been turbocharged recently, with separate visits by Modi and the country’s External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar across the Middle East, North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific.
This included Dr Jaishankar’s trip to the United Nations on Monday (Jul 13), where he launched India’s official campaign for non-permanent membership of the UN Security Council (UNSC) in 2028 to 2029.
