- 4 years ago
Dr. Happymon Jacob speaks to Amb. Talmiz Ahmad (Retd. Indian
Diplomat and Author) about the emerging geopolitical situation in West Asia. He builds on his analysis of the region in the previous episode (NSC 66: Part I) to suggest the imperative and avenues for increasing the Indian role in the region. He speaks of
Eurasia and the Indian Ocean Region as one integrated security space with deep historical connectivity, and argues for greater Indian involvement in the region. He also identifies several misnomers and psychological barriers that have so far dampened
India’s attitude towards the region and hindered the prospects for cooperation and security in a broader sense.
