New Delhi [India], September 6 : The world is changing and the G20 itself is actually the best statement of it, which is today viewed as the premier global forum, according to External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar.
“So if you looked at it earlier on it was like very tight groupings and you let us say, particularly in the Western world, a very strong alliance structure,” he said.
Jaishankar pointed out that today there are many more independent countries, who are independent at a global level, a regional level, or the neighbourhood level.
On being asked if the Russia-China alliance is creating a bigger impact on other countries, he added that the world of today is a much more multipolar and nuanced place.
“So, I would say do not see the world very starkly in terms of black and white and this camp and that camp. I am not saying that countries do not have their partialities and their relationships they do. But I think the world is a much more nuanced place. It is much more multipolar, there many more variables,” the foreign affairs minister said.
