Changes in #geopolitics continue to accelerate at a breakneck speed. Post the announcement of the nuclear deal, fractures in EU/NATO are becoming more apparent. At the same time the #Quad’s focus continues to intensify on China. 1/n google.com.hk/amp/s/amp.abc.…
AUKUS (the nuclear deal) also shows further cracks in NATO as the Biden Govt gives up hope on France and Germany joining the Quad. 2/n

Cracks within NATO run deeper as China 🇨🇳 continues to woo France and Germany - the latest being the ‘Africa Quad’ 3/n

On the other hand, the Quad continues to build ‘the case’ - latest by establishing reasons to be more ‘involved’ in the South China Sea. While we are decidedly in an interdependent world, battle lines are being drawn fast for a divided world. Ticktock! 4/4 reuters.com/world/asia-pac…

So how should we deal with this? Premeditated or not, the recent withdrawals have created a deep sense of frustration. Apart from emotional outbursts, how do we attain some ‘leverage’? We surely can, but we need to play to ‘our interest’ first 1/n
We are undoubtedly one of the most hospitable hosts & always step up to help others. But we need to realise that being nice to everyone without reciprocity doesn’t work
“ 🇵🇰 was the most hospitable place and people I visited. It has an incredible…” 2/n

While the cancellation of the series is extremely disappointing & a popular outburst is natural, we need to stay focussed on what is good for 🇵🇰 & it’s 🏏 . And right now that is to work on ensuring that the English tour is (alongwith other future tours) not cancelled as well 1/n
