Summit diplomacy has become an important part of world politics in the 21st century. The success or failure of a country's foreign policy depends on whether more countries can stand on their own side.Does India successfully borrow the G20 summit to achieve their own goals?to be observed.
The G20 (G20) summit began in 2008, and the background was to deal with the financial crisis.However, in the context of Sino -US competition, which is opposed to values, the global governance function of the G20 is getting weaker and weaker, and consensus is difficult to achieve. Even if there is consensus, no one is really practicing, and the role of the competition stage of the great power is becoming increasingly increasingly increasingly.The more prominent.
First of all, remember the greatness of the G20 Hangzhou Summit.The G20 summit held in Hangzhou held in Hangzhou in September 2016 created an unprecedented grand event. The image of the great power showed to people has two points to memories: one is a very luxurious downturn.The luxurious hotel behind Hangzhou was amazing "to be stunning." The article explained this; the second was that the people's daily journal "Hangzhou Summit opened the Chinese medicine prescription for the world economy" pointed out: "China believes that the development of the world economy is today ...The potential of traditional economic systems and development models has declined ... The defects of existing economic governance mechanisms and structures have gradually emerged. The "physical mechanism" of the world economy has a problem. "Obviously, Chinese officials already believe that the Western model is behind, China should be backward, China should be"Contributions to China".
The G20 Hangzhou Summit has become the iconic incident of Chinese diplomacy.Since then, the luxury and luxurious downtown and the "pointing for the direction of global development" have become the characteristics of China's hosting international summit.China held the Central Asian Summit to stun the world again.At the ancient capital of Xi'an, which symbolizes the beginning of the ancient Silk Road, Chinese leaders welcomed the heads of prestige of the Five East Asia with the traditional welcome ceremony of the "Tang Dynasty" to create a grand narrative of the "Come of All the Kingdoms".EssenceThis "view of the world" has no world, only the world.
The just -concluded BRICS Five Kingdoms Summit was not organized by China, but China played the most attention.
Li Kexin, a special envoy of the BRICS Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Director of the International Economic Department, said in the introduction of the results of the summit: "President Xi explained the stance proposition of Chinese stance on the strengthening of the stance of pragmatic cooperation between the BRICS countries to strengthen economic and trade, security, humanities, and global governance., Put forward a series of specific cooperation initiatives to point the direction for the development of the BRICS. "
The problem is here, Xi Jinping did not attend the G20 summit in India.what does that mean?
Aparna Pande, a researcher at the Hudson Institute in the United States, believes that maybe China wants to tell the Chinese people that India's meeting of rotating chairman countries is not so important to China.Harsh Pant, Vice President of the Indian Observer Research Foundation Research and Foreign Policy, believes that this is undoubtedly highlighting that Indian -China relations are at the bottom.This question is that China is unwilling to make wedding dresses for India.
Secondly, the G20 Indian Summit shows the rise of the Indian economy.India has become another major rising country after the rise of China, and competition between China and the United States has provided India an excellent opportunity for centuries; India also has ambitions to replace China and provide the world with "China plus one" option.
The geopolitical tensions that are continuously intensified in Chinese and Western have prompted many companies to start looking for alternative places outside China, and India took the opportunity to strive to attract Western companies' investment.For example, a Indian startup ZetWerk is responsible for climbing customers and Indian domestic manufacturers.ZetWerk used China's dynamic zero -zero policy to take the opportunity to provide the United States with various products from nail knives to steel frames. The company's valuation has reached $ 2.7 billion (about S $ 3.67 billion).
India is self -proclaimed with global southern leaders
The International Monetary Fund Organization predicts that India will become the fastest growing economy in the world this year. GDP (GDP) is expected to grow by 6.1%, which is much higher than the average level of 4%of emerging markets.Five times.The Chinese economy has shown a long -term slowing trend. Apple and Foxconn, such as Apple and Foxconn, are considering expanding Indian business.
But India will never be satisfied with the development of the manufacturing industry, but uses G20 to show the leadership of digital development.This is largely due to India's experience in the field of financial, education, and vaccine management during the crown disease epidemic situation to achieve its experience in developing goals.It is consistent to promote digital development with the spirit of the United Nations to achieve sustainable development goals.
On August 19th, the documents of the G20 Economic Ministerial Conference pointed out that according to Indian President Murmu's initiative, recognizing the importance of digital public infrastructure, in order to promote development, tolerance, innovation, trust and competition, respect for human rights and basic basisfree.The digital public infrastructure advocated by India corresponds to the Belt and Road Initiative of China.Belt and roads are the infrastructure of physical forms, and the background is the world factory; digital public infrastructure is a digital world, and the background is the world office.
Third, the G20 summit once again shows that India is the leader of the south of the world.India has always been self -sustaining with the leaders of the League of Leadership and the Third World.When the world's south became a replacement term for the third world and developing countries, India seemed to be regarded as the leader of the southern south of the world.In January of this year, India organized a video summit of the "Voice of the Global Southern Country", but China did not invite China to participate.Prime Minister Modi said at the meeting: "As far as India is concerned, your voice is India's voices, and your priority is the top priority of India."
Obviously, Modi is voicing with the gesture of global southern leaders.Papua New Guinea Prime Minister James Modar called Modi as "the leader of the south of the world."Therefore, the G20 summit naturally became the best opportunity for India to show leadership to the world.
India uses "a family, a earth, a future" as the theme of this summit. The agenda revolves around the problems faced by low -income countries in the world, such as debt, inflation, food security, and climate change.
India strives to speak for the south of the world, but China's influence on the global south seems to lead India.China mediates the relationship between Saudi Arabia and Iran, making these two countries a new member of the BRICS.The trillions of dollars invested by the Belt and Road Initiative of China, the $ 4 billion global development and South -South cooperation funds set up, and the launch of 10 billion US dollars of special funds for Chinese financial institutions are all beyond India.
With the influx of Indian neighboring countries such as Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, Indian foreign policy experts believe that India is being surrounded by geopolitics, and "it is a good time for India to take the lead in responding to global challenges."India's help to Sri Lanka during the Sri Lanka debt crisis in 2022 won Sri Lanka's hearts.
India and China compete for the leadership of the global south. There are two significant advantages. One is that India can be coordinated on behalf of the south of the world and the West, not China; the other is that the debt issues of some developing countries are closely related to the Belt and Road Initiative. ChinaThere are also disputes with some sovereignty in the South China Sea in the South China Sea.
The United States also hopes that India will be a bridge between the United States and the southern world.From value watching, India will not advocate anti -West, while China is mobilizing the global southern anti -American and anti -western West.
Summit diplomacy has become an important part of world politics in the 21st century. The success or failure of a country's foreign policy depends on whether more countries can stand on their own side.Does India successfully borrow the G20 summit to achieve their own goals?to be observed.With the deterioration of geopolitics today, can the G20 summit produce transformative results?Is there enough willingness to get consensus between large world economies?Suspicious!The G20 Indian Summit has become the brand of Modi, laying the foundation for re -election, but does it benefit the Indian people?to be observed.
