13:11- What core misunderstandings still shape U.S.–Russia relations?
- The U.S. and Russia disagree on when the Cold War truly ended, leading to conflicting interpretations of who “won” and what the post-Cold War order should be.
- They fundamentally misread each other’s motives, especially whether Russia’s actions are defensive responses to NATO expansion or attempts to rebuild Soviet influence.
- Each side views itself as upholding the rightful security order, creating mutual suspicion that blocks genuine diplomatic understanding.
19:49- What role does India’s participation in BRICS and the SCO reveal about its evolving influence in Eurasian politics?
- India is essential for a truly multipolar system, preventing BRICS and the SCO from becoming overly China-centric.
- Its presence brings balance in Eurasia, helping ensure no single power—China or Russia—dominates the region.
- India’s economic and demographic strength positions it as a rising great power, increasing its influence in Eurasian politics.
