External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar on September 4 said talking about the Indian Ocean and not the Pacific Ocean when discussing India's maritime interest shows a limitation of thinking, and India should go beyond this historical line of thinking.
"Indo-Pacific is a new strategic concept going on in the world," he said.
The idea that India should not interfere with the issues of other countries is a kind of "dogma" which should change, Mr. Jaishankar said at a function to unveil the Gujarati translation of his book, "The India Way: Strategies for an Uncertain World."
