With Parliament in session, PM Modi likely to skip SCO meet in Kazakhstan on July 3-4
Saturday, 22 June 2024 PM Narendra Modi is likely to skip the SCO summit hosted by Kazakhstan in Astana due to ongoing Parliament session. He will miss the chance to engage with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif. Given the state of relations with both countries, Modi perhaps won't mind not having any sort of engagement with Xi and Sharif. India, however, has said in the past it attaches great importance to SCO for peace, stability and economic development of the region.

Ukraine’s intelligence agency has confirmed a major shift in Russian weapon manufacturing: the discovery of an Indian-made component in Iranian-designed Shahed drones used by Moscow. As Western sanctions tighten, Russia is now relying on Chinese, Iranian, and non-Western tech to sustain its military-industrial machine. The majority of electronics found in these drones are no longer American-made. Experts warn that clandestine supply chains — through countries like India, Türkiye, and Kazakhstan — are helping Russia replenish banned components and continue its war efforts with little global accountability.

Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit to Malaysia marks a pivotal moment in Beijing’s bid to outmaneuver the U.S. in Southeast Asia. With Trump-era tariffs souring Washington's trade ties, Xi aims to convince Malaysia and ASEAN that China is the region’s best long-term partner. Touting deepened strategic ties, tech cooperation, and economic integration, Xi’s charm offensive leans into BRICS, RCEP, and de-dollarization plans. As Malaysia looks East, Beijing is pushing hard to anchor a new global order that trades in renminbi—and trades away American dominance.

President Donald Trump has launched his first-ever direct attack on Chinese President Xi Jinping, accusing him of using his Vietnam visit to "screw" the United States. Trump’s remarks come amidst the escalating tariff war with China, where he warned that the trade conflict might have far-reaching consequences for the U.S. Despite announcing a massive 145% tariff on Chinese goods, Trump is framing Xi’s trip as part of Beijing’s broader strategy to weaken U.S. interests globally. As tensions mount, experts predict that the war on tariffs could set the stage for a world-changing economic standoff.

As the U.S. slaps 145% tariffs on Chinese goods, President Xi Jinping touches down in Hanoi — and the world takes notice. In a high-stakes diplomatic mission, Xi kicks off his Southeast Asia tour by strengthening economic and strategic ties with Vietnam. With 40 potential deals on the table — from supply chains and rail infrastructure to artificial intelligence and aviation — China and Vietnam are signaling a major shift in regional dynamics. Meanwhile, Vietnam walks a delicate line: negotiating tariff relief from Washington while tightening controls on Chinese goods to avoid rule-of-origin fraud. Is Vietnam aligning with Beijing, or playing both sides in a new global power game? This video unpacks the trade tensions, diplomatic signals, and what Xi's visit could mean for the balance of power in Asia — and beyond.
