#Raisina2022 #RaisinaDialogue #TerraNova

Peter Grk (@MZZRS): We are embarking on the unknown with the ongoing #foodcrisis, dysfunctional #multilateral organisations & the #pandemic.

Peter Grk (@MZZRS): #RussiaUkraine war has introduced tectonic shifts which will be difficult to alter. This shift will affect how #Europe is looked at globally. Will #Europe play a growing role in the international community & #IndoPacific in the next decade?

#Raisina2022

.@AHuitfeldt: An attack on a country’s territorial integrity is an attack on #democracy and #international rules-based order. #Europe will be more united to defend democracy.

#Raisina2022

.@HonTonyAbbott: #Ukraine needs to win because of the growing Moscow-Beijing ties. If #Russia manages to pulverise Ukraine, #Beijing, which is closely watching this crisis, will feel emboldened.

#Raisina2022

.@AnzeLog: One should not have double standards when they're part of the #multilateral fora. While there were doubts about the #EU acting decisively, it did adopt a common and united position.

#Raisina2022

.@AnzeLog: Should #Russia decline, it will be #China who will be the beneficiary. So, the #multilateral order must ensure that this war stops.

#Raisina2022 #RussiaUkraine

.@SanjayVermalFS: The lack of attention to the #SouthChinaSea is partly responsible for the ongoing #RussiaUkrainecrisis.

We are asking #Europe to pay more attention to the #IndianOcean as it is an important interest theatre and #geostrategic space.

#Raisina2022

Peter Grk (@MZZRS): #EU does not have a good track record of dealing with a lot of crises at the same time, but now, the #EU is capable of translating words into deeds.

#Raisina2022

.@GERonAsia: The #EU, as a global actor, needs to show that defending the rules-based order is not just a regional concern and a concern of the #US and #China, but also of the EU, as showcased by #Germany when it released its #IndoPacific strategy.

#Raisina2022

.@GERonAsia: A security element has been added to the #EU’s strategy towards the #IndoPacific. The EU needs to be present in the region & #supplychain resilience has been focused on, by offering trade agreements to diversify our economic partnerships.

#Raisina2022

Peter Grk (@MZZRS): The dilemma of trade & security is based on #Europe’s relationship with #China, on one hand, to uphold the rules-based order and on the other, working with China in areas which are important and profitable to Europe.

#Raisina2022

.@GERonAsia: Avoid dependencies to preserve the sovereignty of action. This can be done by making new economic partners, to use the potential of the Indian market in a much bigger way.

#Raisina2022

.@HonTonyAbbott: Purely in economic terms, #China’s rise has helped many countries, but at the same time, it has exploited the rules and has been a disproportionate beneficiary of the #liberal trading order.

#Raisina2022

.@HonTonyAbbott: India is providing a good alternative, with its sophisticated manufacturing base, to reduce #Australia’s reliance on #China, and thereby, ensure #supplychain resilience.
