Global Horizons
Date: April 10, 2025
US President Donald Trump continued to dominate global headlines during the month, as the impact of his explicit and implicit actions on geopolitical, economic and security issues reverberated across the international space, forcing a rethink on long-held alliances, arrangements and institutions.
In this issue, the author details President Trump’s initiatives and pronouncements cutting across the areas of world peace, security, trade and development. Given this volatile environment, India will need to keep its communications and partnerships open and evolving with all major powers, and sustain its economic growth and strategic independence.
This issue also surveys major developments related to the war in Europe, conflict in the Middle East, European efforts to shore up defence capability, and a new G7 initiative on maritime security.
The major outcomes of the Indian Prime Minister’s state visit to Mauritius during the month, including his expansive vision of “Mahasagar”, are highlighted, as also the progress of India-New Zealand relations following a summit meeting in New Delhi.
Finally, this issue draws attention to India’s immediate and effective delivery of humanitarian relief after a massive earthquake hit central Myanmar on March 28.
