External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar on January 30 said India’s greater capability, its own interest and reputation today warrant that it actually help in difficult situations, in reference to the Indian Navy’s deployment of warships in the Red Sea region to deal with attacks on merchant Navy vessels.
The Indian Navy has deployed 10 of its ships in the region, Mr. Jaishankar said responding to a question during an interaction with students at the Indian Institute of Management Mumbai.
“India’s greater capability, our own interest and our reputation today warrant that we actually help out in difficult situations,” he said.
