India Navigates Geopolitical Challenges Amid US Policy Shifts and Regional Conflicts

Analysed 6 Nov 2026·3 sources analysed·New Delhi, India·Politics
India Navigates Geopolitical Challenges Amid US Policy Shifts and Regional ConflictsPreviousNext

India faces complex geopolitical challenges amid shifting global dynamics, highlighted by US policy changes under Donald Trump and China's rising influence. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar emphasized the need for bold reforms in this 'age of flux.' India's West Asia policy, grounded in multialignment and neutrality, confronts regional conflicts intensified by recent attacks and Iran's war, with Pakistan's role raising concerns. The US's transactional foreign policy, including sanctions linked to India's Russian oil purchases, further complicates India's strategic positioning.
