Trump in Beijing: Can China-US diplomacy stabilise Asia’s energy and security shocks?
on Trump-Xi summit, quoted in TRT World report saying Swaran Singh of Jawaharlal Nehru University told TRT World that India’s overriding interest – and by extension much of the wider region’s – is “rapid de-escalation rather than alignment with any bloc.” The emphasis, he noted, is on stability rather than strategic positioning. Swaran Singh’s framing of China-US ties as “tactical stabilisation between systemic rivals” captures the prevailing mood across much of Asia.

Asian nations in strong race to host 2036 Olympics
quoted in China Daily: Swaran Singh, a professor of diplomacy and disarmament at Jawaharlal Nehru University in New Delhi, said India is aiming to host the Youth Olympics as well as the 2036 Games to promote sports among Indian youth, and provide them with home support to compete at the international level. India has a young population, with a median age of 28, he said. "This large aspirational and restive youth can become more disciplined and productive by India supporting sports culture and events of this scale and prestige," Singh said. The country's standing in international sports has grown in recent years, along with forecasts it will move from the world's fifth largest economy to the third biggest within five years. Hosting the Olympics, therefore, would give India opportunities to connect with the world in multiple ways, and boost efforts toward the country becoming a developed nation by 2047. "Of course, it (bidding for the Olympics) is also reflective of India's ambitions to showcase its power and capabilities for hosting such mega events," Singh said, pointing to the success of hosting the 2010 Commonwealth Games and a series of G20 meetings last year

Modi’s Singapore visit strengthens ties, boosts India’s Indo-Pacific strategy: analysts
quoted saying: “The visit was significant in Prime Minister Modi building a personal bond with newly elected Prime Minister [Lawrence] Wong and re-energising his bonhomie with other Singapore leaders. The focus of his interactions was clearly on further strengthening their relations and making these future oriented,” said Swaran Singh, an international-relations professor at Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi. Singh from Jawaharlal Nehru University said Modi’s latest visit marks a shift in how Southeast Asia is seen as “increasingly more enthusiastic” to engage with New Delhi. “From India as well, it marks one more milestone in India’s expanding and deepening of its partnership with many more countries.”

Western nations increasingly alarmed by Russia-North Korea alliance
Report by Shweta Sharma: quoted saying “The two pariah states, facing robust Western economic and technical sanctions, are drawing closer due to the war in Ukraine and Russia’s urgent need for ammunition after nearly two years of continuous war,” Swaran Singh, a professor of international relations at the Jawaharlal Nehru University in New Delhi, India tells The Independent. “This alliance marks a role reversal,” Singh says, adding that it was the Soviet Union that supported the formation of North Korea and under Kim’s grandfather Kim Il-sung’s leadership it was funded, supplied and supported with defence equipment by the Soviets. “Western nations should view this growing collaboration with apprehension, as it strengthens both North Korea and Russia in their prolonged confrontation with the West."

India under pressure to engage with Myanmar junta, rebels amid refugee influx from border fighting
Swaran Singh, a visiting professor at the University of British Columbia, said India’s approach thus far had been to engage the junta but with the aim of reviving democracy in Myanmar.India is in “close communication” with the National League for Democracy – the political party founded by democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi and toppled by the junta. “India is likely to continue with this balanced approach of engaging all parties while hoping for an early end to the crisis followed by revival of democracy,” Singh added.

India’s border security interests make Asean’s Myanmar peace plan a ‘second-rank concern’
report by Maria Siow on India’s engagement of Myanmar military junta: Swaran Singh, professor at the School of International Studies in Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru University, said that India’s “cautious cultivation” of the junta over the past decades had led to the “gradual democratisation of Myanmar”, a process which was now “briefly reversed”. “However, India remains hopeful that such a cautious cultivation of military junta can restart that democratisation process, which remains India’s major objective,” Singh said.

वियतनाम के साथ भारत का ये समझौता, चीन पर निशाना?
BBC हिंदी के शुभम किशोर : जेएनयू में प्रोफ़ेसर स्वर्ण सिंह कहते हैं, "चीन और वियतनाम के बीच अपनी भूमि और समुद्री सीमा, दोनों को लेकर विवाद रह चुका है. समुद्री सीमा अभी भी विवादित है." उनका कहना है कि वियतनाम को भारत के साथ रक्षा सहयोग से लगातार फ़ायदा होता रहा है. वो कहते हैं, "यह भारत की एक्ट ईस्ट नीति के साथ-साथ क्वाड प्लस देशों के साथ संबंध बेहतर करने की भारत की कोशिश का भी हिस्सा है जिसमें न्यूजीलैंड, दक्षिण कोरिया और वियतनाम शामिल हैं." " भारत और वियतनाम दोनों के अपने पड़ोसी देश चीन के साथ जटिल समीकरण हैं और सैन्य साझेदारी को चीन दक्षिण चीन सागर में अपनी संप्रभुता के दावों के ख़िलाफ उठाया कदम मानता है." विदेश मामलों के जानकार रॉबिन्दर सचदेवा का भी मानना है, "युद्धपोत देना दोनों देशों के बीच रिश्तों में एक बड़ा कदम है क्योंकि चीन से दोनों देशों के रिश्ते बहुत अच्छे नहीं है. दक्षिण चीन सागर में दोनों देशों का हित जुड़ा है, इसलिए इसे चीन से जोड़कर देखना गलत नहीं होगा." हालांकि भारत ने कई बार यह स्पष्ट किया है कि भारत-वियतनाम रक्षा सहयोग भारत की एक्ट ईस्ट नीति का हिस्सा है और इसका भारत की चीन नीति से कोई लेना-देना नहीं है. स्वर्ण सिंह के मुताबिक दोनों देशों के स्वतंत्रता सेनानियों के बीच मजबूत तालमेल रहा है जो कि गांधीजी, नेहरू और हो ची मिन्ह के बीच पत्रों के आदान-प्रदान में देखा गया है.

China and US officials meet over North Korea ballistic missile launches
Cyril Ip quote me in her report saying that Washington is “abundantly clear” that it understands the unique advantage of China: its proximity to both Russia and North Korea.“The bare minimum consensus between the US and China on the issue of North Korea’s nuclear weapons and missiles remains managing its regional implications. Beyond this, their perspectives fundamentally push them in different directions,” Singh said. He said it was not likely such exchanges would have any impact on Beijing-Pyongyang relations

ताइवान की धाकड़ राष्ट्रपति:चीन की आंखों में चुभती हैं साई इंग वेन, हांगकांग की आजादी की समर्थक, भारत से है गहरा लगाव
दीप्ति मिश्रा की रिपोर्ट में : स्वर्ण सिंह बताते हैं कि ताइवान की राष्ट्रपति अमेरिका के दम पर चीन को चुनौती देती हैं। ताइवान के पास अभी अमेरिका का सपोर्ट है। अमेरिका की विदेश नीति के लिए ताइवान सिर्फ एक कार्ड है, जिसका इस्तेमाल वह चीन पर अंकुश लगाने के लिए करता है। पिछले 4-5 साल से अमेरिका और चीन के बीच ट्रेड और टेक को लेकर तनातनी जारी है, जिसकी वजह से वह ताइवान का समर्थन कर रहा है। प्रोफेसर सिंह कहते हैं कि चीन के साथ अमेरिका के रिश्ते कैसे भी हों, लेकिन अगर ड्रैगन ने हमला किया तो अमेरिका ताइवान के साथ लड़ने नहीं आएगा। वह सिर्फ अपने हथियार बेचेगा।
