During a conversation titled 'How a billion people see the world' on Wednesday in London, moderated by noted journalist Lionel Barber, Jaishankar discussed India's impactful position in global affairs. "So, we've actually softened the oil markets and the gas markets through our purchase policies. We have, as a consequence, actually managed global inflation. I'm waiting for the thank you," he said.
Jaishankar also highlighted the balance between principles and interests in geopolitics. "We have learned the hard way that people speak of principles... But they are tempered by interest. In this particular case, we have a very powerful interest to keep our relationship with Russia."
