  "account": "India's External Affairs Minister, S Jaishankar, urged emerging and middle powers to enhance their cooperation in various spheres to shape the evolving global order, according to a report from the Munich Leaders Meeting 2026. He emphasized that despite lacking superpower status, these countries can wield significant influence by coordinating resources and supporting one another on issues ranging from conflicts and supply chains to advanced manufacturing and climate action. Jaishankar argued that the changing global landscape necessitates a broader role for countries beyond the major powers in international affairs. Key areas for collaboration, he suggested, include international peace and security, economic alignment, supply-chain resilience, advanced technology, healthcare, connectivity, defence, and space. He highlighted India's successful negotiation with the European Union as a case in point, demonstrating that middle and emerging powers can build robust economic relationships.",
