India’s Look-West policy has been instrumental in strengthening its engagement with the Persian Gulf, a region vital for energy security, trade, and strategic alliances. The policy focuses on fostering deeper economic and diplomatic ties with Gulf nations, balancing relations with key players like Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Iran, and Israel. Given the region’s geopolitical complexities, India has maintained a neutral and pragmatic approach to ensure stability and mutual cooperation.
The Persian Gulf is home to a significant Indian diaspora, contributing to both economic and cultural exchanges. India’s trade agreements, defense collaborations, and investment initiatives in the region reflect its commitment to long-term engagement. However, challenges such as regional conflicts, shifting global alliances, and energy transitions require India to continuously adapt its strategy. Reproduced
