Indiens Regionalwahlen inmitten einer verheerenden COVID-Krise

Hunderte Millionen schreiten in fünf Regionen zu den Urnen

Im Zeitraum vom 27. März bis zum 29.

Es handelte sich hierbei um Regionalwahlen in einer aus deutscher Sicht kaum vorstellbaren Größenordnung, da sie eine Bevölkerungszahl betrafen, die selbst diejenige Brasiliens (ca. 213 Millionen) übersteigt. Die Wahlen waren zudem ein Gradmesser für die tatsächliche Fähigkeit des indischen Premierministers Narendra Modi und seiner auf Unionsebene regierenden Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Regierungen in Teilen des Landes zu bilden, in denen sie bisher kaum Einfluss ausgeübt hatten. Bislang regierte die BJP von diesen Staaten nur in Assam.

The Remaking of Indian Foreign Policy: Opportunities and Challenges

- by Prof. Brahma Chellaney

India may be a rising power but it continues to punch far below its weight. The task of Indian foreign policy is to change that. Indian diplomacy, however, faces several constraints, which range from increasingly fractious domestic politics to an ever more troubled neighborhood. India today confronts not only two regional adversaries, China and Pakistan, but also is at serious risk of being surrounded by a cordon of China’s friends. This paper will have a more closer look at the Indian Foreign Policy and understanding whether its objectives have been achieved ....

From Partner to foes? The changing U.S.-China relationship in the post pandemic world.
