تقييم سياسة الهند أثناء الأزمة الخليجية (2017-2021)‎

الملخص EN

India adopts a cautious policy towards the GCC states during the emergence of differences between them, such as the gulf crisis of 2017-2021.

this stems from many considerations: first, the principle of non-alignment.

despite Narendra Modi's government focus on proactive diplomacy and engagement abroad, it has reverted to the principle of non-alignment and neutrality in dealing with the crisis.

second, the special relationship with the GCC states.

given the depth of historical interdependence, geographic proximity and intertwining of economic interests, these states are India's most important trading partner and are home to the largest overseas Indian community.

third, the roles of other countries.

because the competing countries such as china and Pakistan have remained neutral, this has encouraged India not to take an active role in solving the conflict.

united states' key role in mediation encouraged new Delhi to remain neutral, taking advantage of Washington's efforts and its influence in securing energy routes.

nevertheless, India has taken an active role in providing Qatar with essential needs and food products during the crisis.
