🇮🇳 INDIA'S POWER MOVE THAT SHOOK WASHINGTON 🇮🇳

After 7 YEARS, Modi finally met Xi Jinping at the SCO Summit. The result? Trump immediately threatened "phase 2 & 3" sanctions, and his trade advisor made shocking statements about India's leadership.

But here's the Indian perspective you won't hear elsewhere:

✅ This wasn't just diplomacy - it was India sending a clear message: "You cannot threaten us, we have options"

✅ Despite 50% US tariffs on exports, India chose to STRENGTHEN ties with Russia and China

✅ From border conflicts to "partners, not competitors" - the India-China reset that changes everything

✅ How India's strategic autonomy allows it to work with QUAD, BRICS, and SCO simultaneously

The viral photo of Modi, Xi, and Putin together triggered immediate panic in Washington. Peter Navarro's response? Calling out India's "Brahmins" and asking why Modi is "getting in bed with Putin and Xi."

This is India playing chess while others play checkers. 🎯

Watch our complete breakdown with journalist Janvi Sonaiya as we dissect what this historic meeting REALLY means for India's future - and why the US is no longer seen as a trusted partner.

The geopolitical game has changed. Are you keeping up?

"It’s not about the democracy. Part of why I wrote this book was to get us beyond these 19th century political science terms. I’m really allergic to political science terms like Democratic or capitalist, socialist, autocratic. Let’s try to be fun and inventive in having a new framework to think about these two big countries." - Dan Wang

🚀 Inspired by Dan Wang's recent book Breakneck and his insightful interviews, our latest article explores critical distinctions in how China and the US approach power and development. Wang’s framework—comparing China as an “engineering state” focused on tangible infrastructure and mastery of manufacturing, versus the US as a “lawyerly society” rooted in legalism, finance, and soft power—offers fresh perspectives on global competition.

🔍 We report on Wang’s points because they raise important questions: Can a service-driven economy sustain long-term power? Will control over physical infrastructure and technological process outweigh cultural influence? How do internal contradictions and strategic choices shape each nation’s future?

🤝 This article invites open reflection and dialogue, as Wang’s analysis challenges traditional narratives and sheds light on the real battleground — manufacturing, technological mastery, and strategic autonomy.

📖 Dive into the discussion rooted in Wang’s research and interviews, and share your thoughts on what truly defines global strength in the 21st century.
