100 days of a war that may alter course of West Asia geopolitics
Hindustan Times|January 15, 2024
As the US and the UK are launching strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen, the risks of a wider conflict remain worryingly high at a time Israel has vowed not to let up in Gaza

In international politics, like in life, the best-laid plans get interrupted, derailed, even disrupted due to what a former British prime minister, Harold McMillan, in a different context and different era, had said about what would shape his term: "Events, dear boy, events" Go back to the world before October 7 

Israel was fighting an internal democratic political battle. Over the past year, as Benjamin Netanyahu's government turned more Right and sought to institute control over the judiciary, Israel saw unprecedented protests for democracy. Even the US administration, reluctant at the best of times to critique Israel, indicated to Tel Aviv that continuing on this path will hurt the relationship, and a debate broke out within the US on the nature of Israeli democracy or the lack of it The US was also in the middle of engineering a historic accord.

that would lead to a normalisation of diplomatic relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia, building on the Abraham Accords of the past five years that has seen Israel and its Arab neighbours collaborate in ways that were unimaginable just a decade ago. 12U2, the grouping that includes India, Israel, UAE and the US, was born.

But the grand symbol of what this normalisation could achieve was unveiled on the sidelines of the G20 Summit in Delhi, as India, US, Saudi Arabia and European nations announced the India-Middle East-Economic (IMEC) corridor. Israel wasn't a part of the official announcement but the project was predicated on its participation and harmonious ties with neighbours.
