New Delhi, Sep 20 (IANS) At a time when global diplomacy is being tested by unpredictable leadership in major powers, India must rise above internal divisions to defend its sovereignty and national interest. The recent antagonistic posturing by US President Donald Trump is not unique to India; he has bullied long-standing allies such as Europe, Japan, South Korea, Canada, and Mexico. His transactional worldview treats foreign relations like business deals, demanding concessions while offering little in return. India’s refusal to bow to such pressure should be a point of national pride, not domestic criticism.
