    China’s Tryst with the IORA: Factoring India and the Indian Ocean

    Engaging with a multilateral body requires constructive foreign policy forethought, especially for a country that is not a fully fledged member of that body. China’s overtures to the Indian Ocean Rim Association (IORA) exemplify this approach. The Indian Ocean and India are the two most immediate elements in China’s policy approach to the IORA. With 20 member states, extra-territorial major powers as important dialogue partners, and the increasing importance of energy politics in the region, the IORA today is a significant multilateral body in China’s calculus.

    President Xi Jinping’s visit to India is a new opportunity for infusing momentum in the bilateral relations.

    India-China Strategic Economic Dialogue (SED): Progress and Prognosis

    This work reviews the significance and progress of Strategic Economic Dialogue (SED) in India-China relations.

With these two initiatives, the regional trade of Asia is entering an interesting phase of liberalisation and integration.
