World is entering an age of flux, says External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar. The minister believes that India will be able to overcome the challenges that come with this turbulent era. At the 5th Kautilya Economic Conclave, Jaishankar emphasized the importance of responding to the issues arising from the uncertain times. He stressed that India's past successes, including during the Covid pandemic and a double conflict, demonstrate its capacity to rise to the challenges.
The External Affairs Minister also highlighted the significance of dialogue and diplomacy in resolving conflicts, particularly the Russia-Ukraine situation. In July, attacks on civilian shipping by both Russia and Ukraine resulted in the loss of Indian sailors. Jaishankar firmly condemned these attacks as completely unacceptable and took the matter up with foreign ministers.
The conversation then shifted towards the possibility of facilitating grain shipments, which eventually expanded into a broader discussion about energy-related issues.
