Highlighting ASEAN's crucial role in India's Act East policy and its broader Indo-Pacific strategy, he stressed the importance of increased representation and influence from the Global South in international affairs.

International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC) offers an alternative route to access Eurasia and beyond.
“Indian naval ships are currently operating in the Red Sea to protect maritime shipping. India has been a First Responder for natural disasters across the Indian Ocean, sometimes even beyond,” the External Affairs Minister noted.
