'US has deliberately become a lonelier power': Jaishankar highlights shifting world order

  • External Affairs Minister Jaishankar said on Sunday at the 62nd Munich Security Conference in New Delhi that the United States is becoming a "lonelier power" by choice, not due to lack of options.
  • The rise of China and sharp competition between Washington and Beijing have led to "weaponization of any leverage" globally, Jaishankar noted, extending beyond these two countries alone.
  • Urging a flexible view of "middle power," Jaishankar cited the Netherlands' role in semiconductors and the UAE's influence as examples of nations punching above their weight.
  • Groups like the G20, Quad, BRICS, and the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor help countries develop "habits of cooperation" in today's evolving global order, Jaishankar described.
  • Competition "coexists with the complexity of interdependence," Jaishankar noted, requiring emerging powers to collaborate with both the United States and China despite sharp rivalry.
