In an interview with Rajdeep, former Indian ambassador Navdeep Suri discusses the geopolitical and economic impacts of the ongoing conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran. Suri emphasizes that India must protest against both the Iranian attempt to blockade the Strait of Hormuz and the United States naval blockade. He highlights the economic repercussions for India, stating, "Our vital national interests have been hurt badly, uh, by this unwanted and illegal war." Suri points out that the blockades disrupt not only energy supplies from the Gulf but also Indian exports. He notes that tens of thousands of tons of basmati shipments from Punjab are currently stranded. Furthermore, Suri warns that allowing Iran to establish a toll gate at Hormuz could set a precedent for other international choke points like Malacca and Gibraltar. He also mentions the complex dilemmas faced by Gulf Cooperation Council countries, as they weigh the risks of an expansionist Israel against an unpredictable Iran.
