Kautilya Conclave mein Singapore ke purv videsh mantri George Yeo bole, Bharat ko China ki tarah badi takaton ke liye khatra nahi mana jata

Yeo ne kya kaha

Yeo ke anusar Bharat ki sthiti Hind Mahasagar ke kinare aisi rahi hai, jahan sadiyon se logon, sanskritiyon, masalon aur vicharon ki aawajaahi hoti rahi hai. Isse Bharat bahari duniya ke liye khas taur par khula bana. Unhone kaha ki isi wajah se videshi aagantuk Bharat mein sahaj mehsoos kar sakte hain, jabki China mein ve “ekroop logon ki bheed mein videshi” jaisa anubhav kar sakte hain. Unhone yeh bhi kaha ki China ko samajhna videshiyon ke liye puri tarah aasan nahi hai.

Yeo ka kehna tha ki Bharat ne khud ko pramukh shaktiyon ke beech achi sthiti mein rakha hai aur dakshin-purv Asia, Japan, Europe aur America, sabhi chahte hain ki Bharat acha pradarshan kare. Unke mutabik Bharat kisi badi takat ko us tarah chunauti deta nahi dikhta, jis tarah China dikhta hai. Unhone yeh bhi mana ki China ke itihas aur samajik swaroop ko dekhte hue uske vaishvik varchasva ki bhumika chahne ki sambhavna kam hai. Ye Yeo ke niji aakalan hain, kisi adhikarik niti ka hissa nahi.

WTO par alag rukh

Isi satra mein Yeo ne kaha ki Bharat aur China ke kai muddon par saman rukh hain aur dono milkar America ke bina bhi vishwa vyapar sangathan (WTO) ko chalane mein bhumika nibha sakte hain. Reporton ke anusar Jaishankar isse sehmat nahi dikhe. Unhone kaha ki bazar mein vikriti keval America ne nahi, dusre deshon ne bhi paida ki hai. Unhone China ke sath Bharat ke bade vyapar ghate aur behtar bazar pahunch ki maang ka sanket bhi diya. Yeo ne WTO ke apiliye nikay ke jajon ki niyuktiyan rokne ke liye America ko jimmedar thahraya.

Yeo ne alag batchit mein Bharat ko China ke prati “behad vyavaharik” rukh apnane ki salah di aur kaha ki AI jaise kshetron mein Bharat ko America ya China par atyadhik nirbhar nahi hona chahiye.

Jaishankar ne kya kaha

Jaishankar ne maujuda daur ko badlav ka samay bataya aur kaha ki aane wala samay uthal-puthal aur anishchitata wala ho sakta hai. Unhone bahu-sanrekhan (multi-alignment) ki jarurat par jor diya aur kaha ki Bharat ko America, China ke ubhar, Russia ke sath paramparik sambandh aur Europe ke sath nai sambhavnaon ke beech santulan sadhna hai. Unhone sangharsh, aarthik dabav aur urja, bhojan tatha urvarak se judi chunautiyon ka bhi jikr kiya.
