| Summary, etc |
The Islamic Republic of Iran and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia have been the two main rivals in the West Asia region since the Islamic Revolution of Iran in 1979, which took place under the former supreme religious leader Ayatollah Ali Khomeini. More than 40 years later, both regional countries are trying to restore their ties, keeping away past rivalries and moving ahead with regional cooperation to establish diplomatic relations with each other. Consequently, the regional dynamics are changing, staunch enemies are becoming friends, and the credit goes to China, which played a pivotal role during the bilateral meetings between the countries. This was a startling moment in the history of West Asia, where political pundits were ghastly surprised. Indian foreign policy experts were closely watching the unfolding developments that taking place in the regional politics of West Asia. India has huge strategic interests in the region; if China gets more space in the region, it will be harmful to Indian interests. But India has very good relations with Iran and Saudi Arabia; If they restore bilateral relations, it would be good for India to maintain relations in the coming years. This study will highlight the challenges and opportunities for India in the West Asia region after the deal. - Reproduced |
