Former Indian Ambassador Anil Trigunayat speaks to Joyeeta Basu, Editor, The Sunday Guardian, broadly on three related issues—restoration of border patrolling by India and China in the area between Demchok and Depsang in Ladakh, along the Line of Actual Control; how this “normalization” comes in the background of the BRICS summit in Russia where both India and China are present and which is witnessing the rise of a new financial mechanism since the dollar has been weaponised too many times by the United States. Is a large section of the world thus heading towards de-dollarisation? What does this mean for India’s relationship with the United States? The current turmoil in India-US relations is a case of the American Deep State trying to keep India on edge. Meanwhile, can China be trusted? What are the possibilities of an India-China war? Ambassador Trigunayat speaks on all this and much more.
