Friday, 3 November 2023 External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has emphasized the need for more resilient supply chains in order to prevent disruptions like those caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Speaking at the Joint Secretary Session of the Senate's External Affairs and Defence Commission, Rome, the External Affairs Minister said, "It's important as market economies, as democratic societies, that we also cooperate among ourselves to build supply chains which are more predictable, which are more governed by rules, which are more stable, which are less political."
External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar and Sri Lankan President Ranil Wickremesinghe have formally commissioned the Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre (MRCC) in Colombo. Funded by a USD 6 million grant from India, the MRCC aims to enhance maritime safety across the region. This ceremony marks a significant milestone in India-Sri Lanka relations, highlighting cooperation in various sectors including power, energy, connectivity, port infrastructure, aviation, digital technology, health, food security, education, and tourism. Join us as we delve into this major development and its implications for regional safety and cooperation.
