Norton diskuterar vad som framstår som Indiens förändrade hållning, sådan den kom till uttryck på SCO-mötet.


Beskrivning av avsnittet:


The US government has long tried to divide China, India, and Russia, but Washington’s aggressive actions have only brought them together. Donald Trump’s tariffs, in particular, angered Indian PM Modi, who visited the Chinese city Tianjin for the 2025 Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit, where the Eurasian countries deepened their relations. Ben Norton analyzes the important results of this historic meeting, and how the US empire’s aggression has blown back.

Några dagar före SCO-mötet gjorde Glenn Diesen en viktig intervju med indiske veterandiplomaten M. K. Bhadrakumar om Indiens nya orientering och dess orsaker.


“China held a grand gathering in Beijing’s Tian’anmen Square on Wednesday to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.


President Xi Jinping delivered a speech and oversaw a military parade which proceeded in two steps: a military review by Xi and a march-past of troops.


A total of 61 foreign heads of state and government, high-level representatives of relevant countries, heads of international organizations and former political dignitaries were present at the commemorative event.


Before the beginning of the gathering, Xi ascended the Tian’anmen rostrum and shook hands with war veterans attending the event.


Standing beside Xi on the Tian’anmen Rostrum were Russian President #VladimirPutin and #KimJongUn, top leader of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, along with more than 20 other foreign leaders.”
