New Delhi: India\u2019s main opposition party, the Congress, has raised serious questions over the country\u2019s foreign policy over talks between the United States and Iran in Islamabad.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, in a statement, Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh expressed cautious optimism that the dialogue between United States and Iran could lead to a durable peace process, while warning that regional tensions, particularly involving Israel, could undermine such efforts.<\/p>\n
He, however, strongly criticised the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, questioning its diplomatic approach and describing it as inconsistent and lacking strategic depth.<\/p>\n
Ramesh also questioned Pakistan\u2019s emergence as host of the high-level talks, asking how Pakistan had managed to regain diplomatic space despite India\u2019s efforts to isolate it.<\/p>\n
The Congress leader further alleged that New Delhi had failed to leverage its ties with Washington effectively and criticised what he termed a \u201cone-sided\u201d engagement with the US.<\/p>\n
He also pointed out that India, despite being part of BRICS, had not taken any initiative to promote peace, calling it a missed diplomatic opportunity.<\/p>\n
Emphasising the need for stability in West Asia, Ramesh said peace in the region was essential and urged immediate de-escalation of tensions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
