Dr J S Suri@DRJSSURI·
Hello and welcome. I’m Dr J S Suri with Dr Apica Sharma the Host and the producer of the Podcast. Today we discuss one of the biggest silent threats to healthcare in India — Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR). The host of this Podcast oiis Dr Apica Sharma, a renowned economist from NITI Aayog , who brings vital insights into AMR’s economic and policy impact. In India, antibiotics are often used without proper testing or prescription. What seems like a quick fix is actually making infections stronger and treatments less effective. AMR now affects not just health, but also our economy, healthcare access and national productivity. In this episode, we’ll briefly explore: Why antibiotics are losing effectiveness How misuse, weak regulation and diagnostic gaps contribute And, with Dr Apica Sharma, what AMR really costs India — and what actions are urgently needed If you’ve ever wondered why some infections no longer respond to treatment — this conversation is for you. I am extremely thankful to Dr Apica Sharma . Let’s begin. youtu.be/wgP118InxAc?si…

My take April 13, when most felt Iran-US talks were over. Now @realDonaldTrump says talks resuming before 2-week ceasefire ends. US’ “blockade” lets US claim a win. It may enable Iran’s gov to get IRGC on board. Issues: Uranium enrichment- later or never; Hormuz Strait opening- in lieu Iran accepting assets release & sanctions lifting; Security of Iran’s allies.
K. C. Singh@ambkcsingh

A US-Iran peace deal after one encounter would be unrealistic. Both sides had wish lists approved by their leaderships. Sticking points being: Hormuz Strait control, nuclear enrichment in Iran, Iranian links to allies & weapons development. Hope ceasefire holds as they rethink.

India’s Military Is Preparing for the Wrong War India’s military strategy remains geared toward fighting the next big conventional war, even as its two closely aligned regional adversaries, China and Pakistan, prosecute asymmetric campaigns against it. China’s stealthy land grabs in Ladakh in 2020 — achieved without firing a single shot — offer a telling example. America’s war in Iran has again underscored the new logic of warfare: advantage no longer rests solely with the technologically superior, but with the strategically adaptive. Despite unleashing overwhelming force, the U.S. failed to convert its tactical successes into a tangible strategic outcome in the face of Iran’s asymmetric reprisals. This is a lesson India can ill afford to ignore, given its continued emphasis on importing big-ticket platforms. It has consistently ranked among the world’s largest arms importers. New Delhi is now advancing a major Rafale deal with France worth around $40 billion — far exceeding its cumulative investment this century in indigenous missile and drone development. The Iran war, much like the conflict in Ukraine, highlights that low-cost drones and missiles are now decisive, transformative weapons of deterrence and reprisal, often outpacing traditional high-end systems in strategic effect. India’s costly obsession with conventional war is blinding it to a simple reality: big-ticket weapons no longer deliver commensurate strategic returns. openthemagazine.com/world/war-on-i…

۱/پیش از مذاکرات تأکید کردم که ما حسن نیت و ارادهٔ لازم را داریم ولی به دلیل تجربیات دو جنگ قبلی، اعتمادی به طرف مقابل نداریم. همکاران من در هیئت ایرانی میناب۱۶۸ ابتکارات رو به جلویی مطرح کردند ولی طرف مقابل در نهایت نتوانست در این دور از مذاکرات اعتماد هیئت ایرانی را جلب کند.

@Chellaney Peace isn’t one option among many—it is the only viable endgame, sooner or later. The sooner we choose dialogue over destruction, the fewer lives we lose learning that inevitable truth.

JD Vance may have hit an impasse in negotiations with Iran, but Trump seems unbothered. “We win, regardless,” he declared. “We’ve defeated them militarily.” By his own logic, there is no reason to resume the war. But logic and consistency are foreign to a maverick leader who views peace and war through the lens of a reality show.

@AdityaRajKaul Call it mediation or facilitation—what matters is that someone kept the door open for peace. That effort still counts, even when talks fall short.

Pakistan’s dream of Islamabad Accord on US-Iran fails. Terror state Pakistan invested massively in Global PR campaign to be seen as a Peace Mediator. Pakistan was nothing more than a facilitator in desi language like a Tent Wallah arranging food stalls, tents and water to guests.
Aditya Raj Kaul@AdityaRajKaul

#BREAKING: Islamabad talks fail. US-Iran have not reached an agreement after 21 hours of negotiations, says US Vice President JD Vance.

The USA's 2-week Ceasefire Last week, the Pakistani Foreign Minister made a very notable trip to Beijing. After that trip, China and Pakistan jointly released a five-point initiative to restore peace in the Middle East: @MichaelKugelman @ambkcsingh shares his views. #NewsToday | @sardesairajdeep

@Chellaney This episode highlights the limits of force in achieving political objectives. Long-term stability will likely depend more on diplomacy, restraint, and multilateral engagement.

Trump’s Iran War: A Strategic Failure on All Fronts The cessation of hostilities against Iran marks a strategic defeat for Trump, underscoring how little his war of aggression actually achieved. First, it failed in its central aim: regime change. Instead, it has consolidated the Iranian regime’s grip on power, giving new life to a government that had been under strain. Second, the Strait of Hormuz — open before the war — is now subject to “regulated passage” under Iranian coordination. What Trump demanded as an unconditional reopening has instead evolved into a tacit recognition of Tehran’s authority, with Iran poised to levy transit fees much like Egypt does in the Suez Canal. Third, the war's international economic costs are vast and enduring. Damage to energy infrastructure across the Gulf and Iran will reverberate globally, making this war arguably the most economically disruptive in decades. Fourth, the war deepened America’s geopolitical isolation. Trump’s public frustration with NATO allies, as well as partners like Australia, Japan and South Korea, only underscored the lack of international backing for a war that had no basis in international law. Meanwhile, Gulf Arab states have been left to absorb both physical damage and reputational fallout. Fifth, the war has eroded not just Trump’s credibility, but that of the United States itself. Finally, it has fractured Trump’s domestic political base at a critical moment ahead of the midterms. This was a war that weakened America, rescued Iran’s theocratic regime and left Trump with little to show but wreckage.

@ambkcsingh I have observed over the years that you have long experience and deeply passionate continuing study of foreign affairs especially of middle east and Iran with unbiased opinions. It is a treat to listen to on media, TV or social media. Unfortunately , i don't see you now.

The #ceasefire (US-Iran) announcement marks a pause, but more importantly, it reveals where each actor now stands. The United States has stepped back from the brink it created. A deadline backed by threats of overwhelming force has given way to a conditional pause built around negotiations. That signals not strength alone, but recognition of limits: military objectives may have been met, but political end states remain elusive. Israel, for its part, finds itself in a more ambiguous position. Having driven escalation, it is now tethered to a process it does not fully control. Its objectives, particularly around regime change or long-term degradation of Iran, sit uneasily with a negotiation track shaped elsewhere. Iran emerges with a measure of strategic resilience. It has absorbed strikes, retaliated, and then shifted the frame from ceasefire to conditions for a broader settlement: sanctions relief, security guarantees, and regional de-escalation. In doing so, it has moved from target to negotiating actor without conceding core positions. Pakistan’s role has unfolded not as architect, but as conduit and catalyst. It has provided the channel through which messages travelled, deadlines were softened, and a narrow diplomatic opening created. That is not mediation in the classic sense, but it cannot be dismissed with stray witticisms either. What we are witnessing is not resolution of conflict , but repositioning. The war has not ended. It has entered a different phase, where coercion and negotiation now proceed together. For India, the implication is clear. Do not read this as de-escalation alone. Read it as a system under strain, where outcomes are still fluid. India should state its position with clarity: support de-escalation, safeguard maritime flows, and resist alignment with any one narrative of this conflict. This is not a moment for silence. It is a moment for calibrated voice. #WestAsia #IranUSConflict #MiddleEastCrisis #StrategicAutonomy #IndiaForeignPolicy #Hormuz #MaritimeSecurity

Mehdi Hasan@mehdirhasan·
Actually "victimhood" is determined by international law. The attacks on Ukraine and Iran are both illegal under the UN Charter. It's that simple. Facts don't care about your feelings.
Yoni Michanie@YoniMichanie

Mehdi, this is a striking comparison — and a flawed one. Ukraine was a sovereign country living within its borders, attacked without provocation. Iran has spent decades exporting violence outward: funding Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, arming Russia's drone campaign against Ukraine, and launching two direct ballistic missile barrages at Israel in 2024. These are not equivalent starting conditions. Calling one "the victim" requires more than noting that bombs are falling. Victimhood in war isn't determined by geography... it's determined by context. By your logic, bombing Nazi Germany made Germany the victim. The question is never just who is being struck. It's why, by whom, and what came before. Iran's nuclear program, its regional proxy network, and its direct attacks on Israel aren't footnotes; they're the whole story. And using Zelensky's credibility as leverage here is the most cynical move of all. Iran supplied Russia with the Shahed drones, killing Ukrainian civilians. Zelensky owes Iran no solidarity, and he owes you no consistency test that erases that history. Principled opposition to aggression means accounting for who the aggressor actually is and not just who's getting hit today.

I agree with you fully. Airstrikes may win headlines, not outcomes. Iran—hardened by decades of pressure—doesn’t collapse, it consolidates. When strategy lacks clarity, power turns into overreach. This may not weaken Tehran—it may strengthen it.
K. C. Singh@ambkcsingh

My op-ed in ⁦@IndianExpress⁩ on #Iran after President Trump’s fact-free address to nation. US objectives’ve evolved from regime change to sending Iran to “Stone Age”. Irony is Iran may suffer more infrastructural damage but will cause mayhem & for it survival is winning.

If civilian infrastructure is deliberately targeted, that’s not strategy—it can amount to war crimes under international law. Accountability doesn’t stop at soldiers; it reaches up the chain of command. History shows, such actions deserve trials, sanctions, and global isolation
Maj Gen Harsha Kakar@kakar_harsha

Strikes on civilian infrastructure is crimes against humanity. @POTUS will get away by lying he did not pass orders, others incl his Gens and @SecHegseth will face the music. It will set examples for others like China.
