Geopolitics - May 2024

En este asunto

This edition of Geopolitics is full of in-depth stories on our variety of issues concerning defence, national security and regional Geopolitics. The two cover stories on India's submarine fleet outline why India needs to urgently beef up the strength of subs if it has to be a true blue water navy in the region and a larger force in the Indo-Pacific. We also examine the government's ambitious target to have India among the top five exporting nations for defence equipment and the sort of road map that is required to achieve this goal. We also look at ISRO's Netra program which hopes to provide a proactive initiative to safeguard India’s interests in space by mitigating the risks posed by space debris and other hazards. We also have a piece on the Prime Minister’s recent visit to Bhutan and how that will impact the relationship between the two countries. All this plus all are regular features in the April of Geopolitics.
