4/ag Here's a solution for "experts on everything" looking for political solutions: Central Govt should #abolish the #APMC Act and the #ECA, along with the 3 new agri laws, and leave every State to make own Agricultural laws. Then they'll be responsible/ accountable to voters!
5/ag Subject to proviso, that States cannot stop inter-state trade in agricultural goods, which framers of the constitution, correctly put under Union Govt's purview. Nor can States force CG to take any action which is responsibility of State, nor obstruct anything in Union list!
There is no evidence that economic relations reduce the probability of conflict between a rising and an established power, or between two rising powers, NONE. To think that a Ruthless Communist dictatorship will be #deterred by balanced trade relations is #SelfDelusion 🤑🤑🤑
2/mafia And there is lots of evedince that a bully/mafia gangster is encouraged by shows of weakness & pusillanimity, not satisfied/content. If the dictatorship's objective is to dominate Asia as 21st C version of Middle Kingdom, they will not be satisfied till it's achieved!
3/mafia reduce tariffs and controls on imports generally, raise tariffs (& NTBs) on goods whose export is monopolized by any country. There is no need to beat your chest about which country it will affect! (cc @PiyushGoyal @nsitharaman )
