🔆 A new chapter in India-Africa ties can be written
✅ There is a slow realisation that Africa, a continent, accounting for nearly 17% of the world’s population today and reaching 25% in 2050, needs to be studied closely.
✅Why? Because India’s rise as a global player is inevitably linked to the kind of partnership it enjoys with Africa.

🔆 What is China’s new law on foreign relations?
✅The law involves foreign affairs, and as the very first article puts it, it was drafted to “safeguard China’s sovereignty, national security and development interests”. ✅Explaining the need for the law, an unnamed official of the National People’s Congress (NPC) told state media the “legal system concerning foreign affairs still has some shortcomings” and “gaps exist in laws safeguarding national sovereignty, security and development interests.”
✅The official said that “speeding up the building of the legal system concerning foreign affairs will help China more effectively deal with risks and challenges.”

🔆Sobriety after the euphoria of the U.S. state visit
The euphoria stemming from Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s state visit to the United States in June is yet to subside. All of India continues to savour the images that marked this highly publicised visit. Those with long memories of U.S.-India relations in the past are, hence, left to wonder whether this is the same U.S. that had let India down in the past at crucial moments.

🔆What are cluster munitions? is using them a war crime
A cluster bomb is a type of weapon that is designed to disperse smaller bombs over a large area. They are also known as cluster munitions, with the smaller bombs referred to as submunitions or bomblets. A cluster bomb capsule is seen on the ground amid the Russia-Ukraine war in Avdiivka, Ukraine, on March 23, 2023.
While cluster munitions are not banned internationally, more than 120 countries – including most NATO members – have signed on to a convention prohibiting their use.

🔆The long rode to finding true peace in Yemen.
The recent prisoner swap between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis in Yemen, which heralds an end to the eight-year-old Saudi-led war in Yemen, is unlikely to bring lasting peace in the country due to the complex web of global and regional stakeholders involved there, unless Yemen unifies and focuses its efforts on rescuing its millions of displaced and suffering citizens.
