In volatile world, India-EU ties more important than ever, says Jaishankar

NEW DELHI: While describing India’s ties with the EU as more important than ever, external affairs minister S Jaishankar reminded the West Tuesday that even though the world is focused on two major ongoing conflicts,

international law

has been disregarded with significant consequences in Asia.
The minister said in a volatile and uncertain world, a stronger India-EU relationship can be an “important stabilising factor”. Without naming any country, he said that “in our own continent, international law has been disregarded with significant consequences”. “Even on a question like

democracy

and military rule, different standards have been applied to our neighbours in the east and and our neighbour in the west,” he said, addressing the inaugural session of the IIC-Bruegel annual seminar.
“The world is currently witnessing two major conflicts, these are often presented as matters of principle. We are told that the very future of the world order is at stake. Yet, the record shows how selectively and unevenly these principles have been applied,” Jaishankar said.
He also touched upon the aspects of

trade and digital tech

, climate action, and their interplay with

geopolitics

. He said today there is much talk about the world order unravelling. Both economic and political logic of an earlier era needs refreshing, he added.
