Navigating geopolitics, India's growing Influence in West Asia: Dr Waiel Awwad

India has always been a natural extension of West Asia.

Before Pakistan's existence, India and Iran shared a border.

India must access CIS countries, and with its growing surplus, it is seeking new markets.

Iran plays a crucial role in the North-South Corridor, alongside India and Russia, and India’s involvement in the Chabahar port enhances its strategic interests.

PM recognizes the importance of strong ties with Iran.

Any conflict in this region would heavily impact India due to its reliance on food and oil security, and the presence of millions of Indians living and visiting there.

India is well-positioned to advocate for peace and leverage its good relations with stakeholders to prevent the conflict from expanding.
