Narendra Modi has been serving China a series of shocks that no one saw coming. The latest? Singapore — once considered Beijing’s secure backyard — is tilting toward India. This is not a coincidence; it is a calculated geopolitical move, and its timing is flawless.
🔹U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called the India–U.S. partnership the “defining relationship of the 21st century.”
Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s whirlwind two-day tour of Japan and China was not just about handshakes and photo ops — it was a masterclass in how to politely remind Washington that the world doesn’t revolve around the White House.
The ongoing Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit in Tianjin, China, is turning out to be one of the most defining moments in recent global diplomacy—almost a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. What unfolded on stage is not just optics, but a tectonic shift in alignments, signaling a new chapter in Asian geopolitics.
For decades, the U.S. dollar reigned supreme as the world’s reserve currency. It was the bedrock of international trade, financial stability, and global power projection. But history has shown one undeniable truth: no reserve currency lasts forever. Just as empires rise and fall, so too does monetary dominance. Today, we are witnessing the dawn of de-dollarization — a shift that is silent, gradual, but undeniably real.
The year 2025 has already witnessed one of its most defining moments — the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Summit. What is unfolding here has shaken not only Asia but also the entire global order. The Western media, visibly rattled, has been mourning in chorus, while Washington’s own trade advisor, Peter Navarro, has gone so far off script that his comments have raised eyebrows across the world. In a bizarre outburst, Navarro alleged that “Indian Brahmins are profiteering from refining Russian oil.” The frustration is evident: the United States never expected India to hit back this strongly — and now Washington is left with no real cards to play.
The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit in China has turned into far more than a routine diplomatic gathering. It is becoming the stage where the long-anticipated rise of the Global South is unfolding before the world’s eyes.
Donald Trump seems determined to invite global criticism with his tariff policies. What began as a clash with Russia, India, and China has now spiraled into a full-fledged backlash against Washington itself. Neither the U.S. Congress, nor Wall Street, nor even the American public has endorsed Trump’s strategy. This morning, a U.S. court went so far as to declare his tariffs illegal. American banks and businesses have voiced their disapproval, and surveys show that nearly two-thirds of U.S. citizens reject his tariff agenda.
The U.S., once confident of India bending to its strategic diktats, is now witnessing something it had never anticipated: India flatly rejecting American bullying and charting its own independent path. This defiance has pricked the false ego of Washington, prompting a wave of reactionary and undiplomatic language from U.S. diplomats and officials.
When President Donald Trump initiated his tariff war, he was well aware of its looming economic consequences. What he may not have anticipated, however, were the far-reaching geopolitical ripple effects it would unleash. Today, those consequences are taking shape in ways that few in Washington could have foreseen.
His aggressive tariff policy, especially towards India, is no longer only drawing criticism from economists but is now sparking political backlash within the United States itself.
Japan was expected to invest $50 billion in the U.S. economy, but the terms demanded by Washington are being called exploitative. Not only would Japan still face 15% tariffs, but a significant share of profits from these investments would also flow directly to the U.S. — a condition widely criticized within Japan as a “horrible deal.”
BRICS has entered an action mode, and the aftershocks are already being felt in Washington. Two major developments signal a dramatic shift in the global balance of power—India’s recalibrating relationship with China and its steadfast energy partnership with Russia. Together, these moves demonstrate New Delhi’s strategic defiance of Western pressure and its determination to chart an independent course.
On August 15th, during his Independence Day address, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a landmark announcement: India is embarking on the development of its most advanced multi-layered air defense shield—Project Sudarshan Chakra.
By slapping 50% tariffs on Indian goods, Washington believes it has exhausted its strongest hand. But here lies the irony—America may have played its final card, while India hasn’t even opened the game.
For far too long, Western nations have viewed India through a distorted lens—considering it a land of barbarians, weakened by two centuries of colonial rule, and incapable of standing tall on its own terms. They often forget that the India of today is no longer a subjugated nation. It is the world’s fourth-largest economy, the fastest-growing major economy, and the country with the greatest demographic asset—its people.
“There is a limit to hypocrisy.” These words, once spoken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, today perfectly describe the actions of President Donald Trump and his administration.
Friends, what many feared has now become reality. President Donald Trump has gone ahead with his threat—effective tomorrow, Indian exports to the United States will face a massive 50% tariff wall. For many, this looks like an attempt to squeeze India into submission. But in this storm, one old and reliable partner has stepped forward with open arms—Russia.
On August 24, 2025, history was written in bold letters. On this day, India made a move that rattled the very foundations of American trade policy. Without prior warning, India suspended almost all INTERNATIONAL POSTAL SERVICES TO THE UNITED STATES.
Ordinary Indian citizens have shown that when united, they can change global markets. The boycott of Azerbaijan and Turkey—launched after these countries supported Pakistan and displayed distorted maps of India—has had a massive impact.
For years, one major question kept coming up, when will India finally take a bold step towards indigenous shipbuilding? THE WAIT SEEMS TO BE OVER.
