Jaiveer argues that India’s greatest strength is its economic stability, describing it as a bigger ornament than gold in the present circumstances. Reflecting on India-Russia ties, he emphasizes that the relationship is built on decades of trust and is not hostage to shifting geopolitical winds or global power rivalries.
