India's emergence as a "major player" in the Middle East is captivating global attention, according to a Foreign Policy article. The author highlights India's deepening ties with key regional players like Israel, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, signifying a significant shift in the international order.


A decade ago, Indians seemed disinterested in playing a larger role in the Middle East, but the situation has dramatically changed. While the US obsesses over China's every move in the region, it overlooks India's emergence as a major player—an intriguing geopolitical development.

The author urges US policymakers to view India's role in the region beyond the prism of competition with China. Instead, they should consider India as an additional counterweight to Beijing, aligning with the Biden administration's shift toward recognizing the Middle East as an opportunity to contain China.


In conclusion, India's projection of power in the Middle East demands serious attention. While India may differ from the US and Israel on certain issues, it is unlikely to undermine Washington's interests like Beijing and Moscow have. India's ascent as a major player offers a new and captivating chapter in the region's geopolitical landscape.
