'More Than A Middle Power, We Are Powers In The Middle': EAM S Jaishankar Challenges India's Global Power Label, Citing $4 Trillion GDP & Massive Growth Potential | Watch

S. Jaishankarexternal Affairs Minister
It's also today a world of choke points, and you know the tendency to weaponise. We tend to think of rare earths as an example, but the fact is even finance is a choke point. I mean sanctions are a choke point. I mean, people are weaponising their grip on finance or on the US dollar,
S. Jaishankarexternal Affairs Minister
More than a middle power, in a way, we are powers in the middle. What would really define a middle power? To use the Prime Minister's words, the countries who have the power to empower,
But I still think we should not have a pessimistic view about this process of change,
Would India be a middle power? It's not a comfortable description because if you are the most populous country in the world, you have a GDP of $4 trillion, give or take, and you have a lot of growth ahead of you, staring you in the face, then the middle power somehow seems to be limiting itself by that definition,
The middle powers would now each apply their own mind, stake out their own interests, figure out their own policies, and then reach arrangements with each other,
The point, I think, is we are moving to a world where the competition is going to be, to some degree, who has what to bring to the table, and then deals among them saying, you know, you do this, I do this. Let's develop this together. Let's trade this for each other,

'We Deserve....': Four Senior Indian Hockey Players Shocked By Reported Retirement Plan Ahead Of Asian Champions Trophy

Everyone's career must come to an end some day, but no player wants it to happen this way. After winning Olympic and Asian Games medals, we should at least have the right to announce our own retirement. Doing that in this manner is humiliating,
I was actually planning to retire before the Olympics, but I should have at least been kept in the loop. Selection is not in our hands, we can only strive to perform well, but retiring with dignity is the right of every player who has won medals for the country,
We found out through the media ourselves, they (HI) should have at least informed us before making such a major decision. After winning gold medal for the country (at the recent Asian Games), we deserve at least that much respect,
