Global Horizons
Ambassador Nalin Surie

This issue examines US's neo-colonial push to reassert global dominance amid eroding trust in international law, and China's exploitation of this uncertainty by floating a China-US-Russia dialogue that threatens multipolarity. It covers escalating US-Iran tensions, a new Saudi-Türkiye-Pakistan security pact and destabilizing uncertainty from Trump's DPRK overtures. India’s diplomatic engagements take center stage, from its active participation in the SCO summit and the deepening of ties with Uzbekistan to the 25th round of Special Representatives’ talks with China.

Economic Security and Resilience Review
Dr. V. S. Seshadri

This issue reviews PM Modi's Uzbekistan visit and the mining MOU strengthening India's critical mineral and energy supply chains. On trade, it flags growing uncertainty from pending US Section 301 investigations, the contested "Great Transhipment Scam" report naming India among transhipment-risk countries, and the new US National Security Science and Technology Strategy's tightening of tech and investment controls. It closes by noting the US-Canada trade breakdown, expanded Iran sanctions, and the EU's CBAM debate as signs of growing use of economic tools for strategic ends.

Focus Europe
Ambassador Ruchira Kamboj & Awantika Singh Sengar

The August issue of Focus Europe explores Europe's de-risking pivot and the broader emergence of a ‘China+1’ world, along with the opportunities & challenges this presents for India. While the EU-India FTA and the TTC could deepen economic engagement and strengthen the partnership, these gains will depend on India addressing the structural challenges that still hold it back.

Indo-Pacific Monitor
Cmde. Lalit Kapur

The August issue surveys intensifying regional tensions and shifting security ties. The US–Iran confrontation in the Persian Gulf has moved from kinetic clashes to economic isolation, while China continues its financial and oil dealings with Iran. In Asia, defence ties are tightening: Japan’s defence minister visited India and Australia to deepen military and industrial cooperation, and Australia and Japan are advancing frigate production and sensor trials. A new Gulf defence alignment (the Mecca Agreement) and other regional pacts reflect growing West Asian security activity.

Cognitive Warfare and India’s Deterrence Challenge
Lt. Gen. D.S. Hooda

The brief suggests that deterrence is shaped not only by military action, but by the lessons an adversary draws from it. India’s long-term success against Pakistan-backed terrorism will depend on integrating cognitive warfare, strategic communication, and sustained diplomatic pressure into its deterrence strategy.
