Harsh V. Pant of the Observer Research Foundation describes India’s relationship with China as both strategically challenging and economically necessary. He argues that while China seeks new markets due to declining global demand, India offers an attractive option. However, he cautions that China’s fundamental geopolitical goals—like limiting India’s global rise and supporting Pakistan—remain unchanged. Pant urges India to use this period of engagement to strengthen its own economic and military capabilities. He highlights the importance of alliances with like-minded nations, such as Japan and the U.S., to counter China's influence in the Indo-Pacific. Ultimately, Pant sees China as a long-term rival, requiring India to stay alert, self-reliant, and strategically prepared for future shifts.
