'Business-like approach unlikely to succeed': India cautions UNGA over Afghanistan; abstains on draft resolution
Tuesday, 8 July 2025 () India abstained from the UNGA resolution on Afghanistan, emphasizing that a conventional approach won't achieve desired outcomes for the Afghan people. India's UN envoy, P Harish, advocated for a balanced strategy that combines incentives and disincentives, as punitive measures alone are unlikely to succeed. He also highlighted the need to prevent terrorist groups from exploiting Afghan territory, referencing Pakistan's role.
In a historic and controversial move, Russia has become the first nation to officially recognise the Taliban government in Afghanistan. The announcement was met with cautious optimism on the streets of Kabul, where many Afghans are now urging neighboring powers like Iran, Pakistan, and India to “choose friendship” over continued conflict. Locals say the recognition brings hope for stability, economic revival, and an end to international isolation. “War brings only destruction. We want peace and cooperation,” said Ahmad Zia Popal, a Kabul resident. The Taliban, still sanctioned by the West and condemned for its human rights record—especially on women’s rights—called Russia’s decision “courageous” and a model for others. While global criticism looms, many ordinary Afghans see this as a turning point. Moscow’s move also raises geopolitical questions as it deepens its footprint in the region amid growing tensions with the West.

BRICS Summit 2025: India takes center stage at the BRICS 2025 Summit in Rio de Janeiro as Prime Minister Narendra Modi leads a powerful charge from the Global South against Trump’s aggressive tariff policy. With 10 nations participating—including new member Indonesia—this year’s summit focuses on fair global governance, climate action, and reforming outdated world institutions like the UN, WTO, and World Bank. As the world’s fastest-growing major economy, India is pushing for a more equitable trade system and calling for collective resistance against economic coercion. Modi’s leadership is not only uniting BRICS but also redefining it—asserting India as the democratic anchor of a bloc once overshadowed by China. India’s role in the New Development Bank and its calls for tech cooperation, sustainable development, and regional peace underscore its rising influence in shaping a new world order.
