2023 marked 75 years since the establishment of diplomatic ties between Italy and India. In March, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Italy’s PM Giorgia Meloni met in New Delhi. This was followed by various meetings between officials from the two countries, including a visit to Italy by Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar.

The central role assigned to India by the US may not sit well with Russia, especially after the Taliban’s return to power in Afghanistan.

Indian government has shown political and diplomatic flexibility, but there is no shortage of internal antagonisms.
