Kolkata: November 29, 2025, (ANI): Speaking in Kolkata after receiving an honorary doctorate from IIM Calcutta, EAM S. Jaishankar explained how the United States, long the underwriter of the contemporary international system, is now setting radically new terms of engagement, often dealing with countries individually rather than through broader regimes.He noted that China, which has historically played by its own rules, is doing so even more assertively today. This is forcing nations to decide whether their attention should be on strategic competition or on the trade-offs shaped by the fragmentation of globalization, supply chains and security.
