53வது துக்ளக் ஆண்டு விழாவில் பேசுவதில் பெரும் மகிழ்ச்சி. திரு. குருமூர்த்தி அவர்கள் என்னை இந்த விழாவிற்கு அழைத்ததற்கு எனது மனமார்ந்த நன்றிகள்.

உலகிற்கு இந்தியாவின் தேவை குறித்த 10 காரணங்களை இந்த நிகழ்ச்சியில் பேசியுள்ளேன்.
1) இந்தியா என்ன சொல்கிறது, செய்கிறது வடிவமைக்கிறது என்பதுதான் இவ்வுலகிற்கு இந்தியா எதற்கு தேவை என்பதற்கான முக்கிய காரணங்கள்.

2) இந்தியாவின் செயல்பாட்டில் இருக்கும் ஜனநாயகம், உலகிற்கு இந்தியா எதற்கு தேவை என்பதற்கான மிக முக்கிய காரணம்.
3) சர்வதேச அளவிலான வாய்ப்புகள் மற்றும் சவால்களை நாம் பிரித்துப் பார்க்க முடியாது. இவை இரண்டிலும் இந்தியா சிறப்பாக செயல்படுகிறது என்பது ஒரு காரணம்.

2️⃣ India’s working democracy is an important reason for the world why it matters.

3️⃣ India matters because global opportunities and challenges cannot be separated and India counts on both scores.
4️⃣ India matters when it is perceived as an exemplar by many in the Global South. And because there are few others who have taken our Development Partnership approach.

5️⃣ India matters when it makes a greater contribution to global production and services.

Addressed Foreign Ministers’ Session on G20 at Voice of Global South Summit.

Made following 7️⃣points:

1️⃣India and the Global South not only have a common future but also a common past. We shoulder burdens of a colonial past,even as we face inequities of the current world order.
2️⃣ While we promote faster rebalancing, more multipolarity and reformed multilateralism, it is imperative that key global conversations of our times reflect our concerns and challenges.
3️⃣ Challenges of unsustainable debt, unviable projects, trade barriers, contracting financial flows and climate pressure have been compounded by covid pandemic & knock-on effects of the Ukraine conflict.
