Geopolitical expert Velina Tchakarova feels India can be an adequate leader of Global South
Geopolitical expert Velina Tchakarova has said India can be a “very adequate leader” of the Global South as the country has “already been a global power.
After addressing the second day of the ‘Cape Town Conversation’ on Sunday, she told ANI, “I think that India can be a very adequate leader of the Global South. It could be an adequate leader because it has suffered a lot in the past, but it has already been a global power.”
"So in a sense, I think that a lot of countries representing the Global South, from Latin America to Africa and to the Asian continent, will accept leadership coming from India,” she said.
She further told ANI, ” I think that India itself is right now dealing more or less with itself because India is on the rise. India is en route to becoming one of the key global players.”
“It will be different, I argue, from the one during the Cold War when it was a leader of the non-alignment movement. So this time, I think that India doesn’t have the luxury of being just non-aligned," she said.
Tchakarova told ANI that this kind of leadership will be the “most authentic that the Global South will accept because they need another narrative.”
