The year 2024 will continue to be turbulent for the world but India is well-positioned politically and economically to navigate the challenges and maintain its rising global role and its path of development, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar said on January 3.
The Union Minister was speaking at the launch of his new book 'Why Bharat Matters' in which he examines the geopolitics and various aspects of India's foreign policy since Independence using the epic Ramayana as the overarching perspective.
"I do think that 2024 will continue to be turbulent, (and) that many of the same factors which drove 2023 would remain very much in play," he said addressing a group of foreign diplomats, strategic affairs experts, academicians and intellectuals. The External Affairs Minister said India is well-placed to look at 2024 with a fair deal of confidence.
