Why Modi NEEDS China More Than Ever

While Western leaders gathered in Washington to discuss Ukraine, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi landed in New Delhi for the first high-level visit in over three years — a meeting that could reshape Asia’s balance of power.
India today faces a high-wire geopolitical crisis:
Trump’s tariffs have humiliated New Delhi, raising duties on Indian goods to 50%.


U.S. trade talks are collapsing as Trump calls India the “Tariff King.”


BRICS and SCO partners are frustrated with India’s refusal to back de-dollarisation or expansion.


Meanwhile, India’s automakers are reeling from China’s rare earth export curbs, and policymakers are being forced to rethink their strategy.


👉 So why does Modi now NEED China more than ever?
👉 Can India mend ties with Beijing before the SCO summit?
👉 And how has Trump’s transactional foreign policy backfired on India’s dream of being a pole in Asia?
