35–40 years from today, when the history of this era is written and scholars discuss examples of diplomacy in the world, they will likely say something like this:
When countries on one side of the Strait of Hormuz- Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE, Bahrain- were in conflict with Iran, and ships were unable to pass through the strait, there was one leader in the world who continued securing oil and gas for his country from the Gulf, while Iran ensured his country’s ships could pass safely through the Strait of Hormuz.
When the Russia–Ukraine war was raging, there was a leader who managed to safely evacuate his country’s citizens from Ukraine, and Russia paused hostilities to allow that evacuation.
When the United States and Europe imposed heavy sanctions on Russia because of the war, there was a leader who continued buying Russian oil and helped stabilize global energy supplies.
When Israel and Palestine were locked in conflict, there was a leader respected by both sides, receiving honors and maintaining dialogue with each.
When the world was divided into blocs- America and Europe on one side, Russia and China on the other; there was a leader who maintained strong relations with all of them, balancing diplomacy while advancing trade and national interest.
That leader was Shri Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India, who served his nation for two decades (2014–2034).
During his tenure, India emerged as a country everyone wanted to partner with.
