Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Japan and China from August 29 to September 1, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said. At the invitation of the.. DNA
In a bold diplomatic and military move, India hosted Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. with full state honours—while simultaneously dispatching warships for joint patrols in the South China Sea. INS Delhi, INS Shakti and INS Kiltan sailed alongside Philippine vessels inside Manila’s exclusive economic zone, triggering a subtle yet unmistakable warning to China. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs reaffirmed support for freedom of navigation, calling the waters part of the “global commons.”
The joint drill coincided with Marcos’ five-day India visit, where the two nations signed a landmark Strategic Partnership agreement to boost defence, maritime cooperation, disaster relief and cyber security. While India didn’t name China, Beijing’s rebuke of “third-party interference” left little ambiguity. The coordinated political hospitality and military manoeuvres signal India’s rising Indo-Pacific assertiveness and a strategic alignment with one of China’s fiercest regional rivals—firmly placing New Delhi in the emerging anti-China security web across the Indo-Pacific.

India’s Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has finally addressed the rising buzz around Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on Indian exports. During a high-level media briefing that followed Prime Minister Modi’s meeting with Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., the MEA clarified that no direct discussion took place on Trump’s recent tariff threats. Instead, the focus was on strengthening India-Philippines trade ties, expanding product diversity, and cooperation in space technology. India showcased its cost-effective space capabilities, with both countries expressing interest in launching and developing satellites together.
The Philippines also supported India’s call to expedite the ITAGA trade review. While the Trump tariffs remain unaddressed formally, India is clearly moving to diversify partnerships and preempt economic turbulence. The strategic dialogue underlined India’s growing regional influence, especially in light of evolving Indo-Pacific geopolitics and rising trade protectionism from Washington.

India has reportedly declined a U.S. offer to buy F-35 stealth fighter jets, according to Bloomberg. The offer was made by President Trump during Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Washington in February. Instead of purchasing American jets, India is prioritizing joint defense manufacturing initiatives and has shown greater interest in the Russian Su-57, especially after its debut at Aero India.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs downplayed Bloomberg’s report, confirming no formal talks on the F-35 have taken place yet. Meanwhile, the U.S. has slapped 25% tariffs on Indian imports due to a failed trade deal, escalating tensions. Trump also announced India would face a penalty over its continued defense ties with Russia. This deepening rift could impact U.S.-India defense cooperation and reshape future arms procurement.

The Iran–Australia diplomatic feud has deepened after Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi mocked Australian PM Anthony Albanese, saying even Netanyahu was “right about one thing—that Australia’s PM is a weak politician.” Araghchi rejected Canberra’s accusations that Tehran sponsored anti-Jewish attacks, stressing Iran protects one of the world’s oldest Jewish communities. He accused Albanese of appeasing Israel after Australia expelled Iran’s envoy over synagogue and café attacks. Tehran vowed retaliation, escalating tensions in a rapidly worsening diplomatic showdown.

A major diplomatic storm has erupted as Australia expels Iran’s envoy, accusing Tehran of orchestrating anti-Jewish attacks, including the torching of a Sydney kosher café and a Melbourne synagogue. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese condemned Iran’s alleged role, calling it “extraordinary foreign aggression.” Tehran, denying the charges and branding anti-Semitism a Western phenomenon, vowed retaliation. Canberra has suspended its Tehran embassy, escalated tensions, and is now considering designating Iran’s IRGC as a terror group—pushing relations to their lowest point.

Russia has openly backed Iran’s nuclear enrichment plans amid growing U.S. and European strike warnings. In a bilateral call, President Putin assured Iranian President Pezeshkian of Moscow’s support, reinforcing a united front ahead of the SCO summit in China.
