In America, Americans were told lies, China was also given a befitting reply, S Jaishankar stopped speaking with such answers.

America should not object, it has every right to comment
S Jaishankar said that if you look at the level of two countries, two governments, we think it is important that there is mutual respect for democracy. It cannot be that one democracy has the right to comment on another democracy and this is part of promoting democracy at the global level, but when others do so then it becomes foreign interference. Foreign interference is foreign interference, no matter who does it or where it happens. S Jaishankar said that you have every right to comment, but I have every right to comment on your comment.

So don't feel bad when I do this. The Foreign Minister said that America and India are among the leading countries in the world which have democratic governance systems. Here in America, many issues are debated regarding our democracy, but sometimes American leaders also comment about India's democracy. He said that the world has become increasingly globalized and as a result the politics of any country does not necessarily remain within that country's national boundaries.

There is a long story with China
Answering a question related to China in the same program, S Jaishankar said that there is a long story of our relations with China, but in short, we had agreements to maintain peace and stability on the border, China has violated them. Have violated. Agreements have been violated. Since our forces are deployed on the front, tension is being created. Unless frontline deployment is resolved, tensions will continue.

He said that if the tension continues, it will affect other relationships as well. This is the reason why our relations have not been good for the last four years. The minister was asked about tensions with China as well as China leaving every country behind in trade relations with India. Jaishankar said that when it comes to trade, China's share in global manufacturing is around 31-32 per cent globally. This has happened because, for many decades, international business (which is predominantly Western-led) has chosen to cooperate with China for mutual benefit.

Will there be any solution to the Russia-Ukraine war?
On Russia-Ukraine war, S Jaishankar said that India believes that differences or disputes between countries cannot be resolved by war. We do not think that any decisive result will emerge from the battlefield. He said that India has started talks in this matter. There was a recent meeting between Prime Minister Modi and Ukrainian President Zelensky. Jaishankar said that we are working very thoughtfully and carefully. We are not exaggerating this.

Our effort is to continue the dialogue, convey the views of both the parties to each other and work honestly. This war has entered its third year and today there are very few countries in the world which can go to these two countries, talk to both the leaders and then go to each other and take the talks forward. .
