| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Inclusion of the IOP in the Indo-Pacific paradigm only underlines the coming future of great powers attempting to spread their writ in this expanse. Already reeling under continental security challenges, a looming economic crisis, and a tardy defence modernization process, India will need to toil in the coming years to sustain whatever leverage it already has. while economic consideration will be a driving factor in India’s efforts to enhance cooperative relations with major actors in the Pacific, the expectation is that it will be a mere fringe player in the strategic dimensions of indo-pacific for some time to come. |
