External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar elaborated on several essential concepts de- bated amid a sense of greater uncertainty in India’s foreign policy

• External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar emphasizes India’s “strategic autonomy” not as an abstract concept, but as a pragmatic approach to engage with major powers amidst changing international relations.

• He asserts that strategic autonomy is linked to India’s adaptability and resilience, enabling India to accelerate its rise as a significant global player.

• Jaishankar warns against equating strategic autonomy with indecision, arguing that India must avoid being coerced into aligning with others.

• He addresses concerns about a “re-hyphenation” with Pakistan, emphasizing that India’s separation from Pakistan in foreign policy has been bolstered by its economic growth and international relevance.

• Jaishankar notes that India’s economy is substantially larger than Pakistan’s, rendering notions of hyphenation irrelevant.

• He criticizes the ruling party’s Pakistan-centric political narrative, suggesting it undermines India’s foreign policy and contributes to self-induced hyphenation.

• The minister advocates for a clear, independent foreign policy that is not influenced by domestic political considerations or adversarial neighbors.
