For the last few years the informal Russia–China–Pakistan “axis” active in Afghanistan has been steadily advancing towards ensuring the principal role for itself in determining the future course of the unstable country and in the neighbourhood. Apratim Mukarji however asserts that the path to peace, stability and prosperity continues to be intractable as, behind the facade of a common agenda, the axis powers are busy advancing their respective interests.

| Summary/Abstract |
Archana Upadhyay shows that identitarian policies in Estonia have sharpened linguistic and political differences as well as age-old resentments kept dormant under Soviet rule. The country’s vast Russian community feels neglected and discriminated against as it is largely excluded from the political process, while the majority population fears that at Moscow’s prompting, Narva and other mostly russophone enclaves might break away to join the Russian Federation.

Prasanta Sahoo argues that in view of their consanguinity, shared history and cultural affinity, SAARC members are fated to cooperate, in spite of the artificial, colonially drawn borders that separate them. Their prosperity and security depend upon their ability to rise above differences and animosities but India must work to win and deserve the trust of its smaller neighbours.

Ramakrushna Pradhan analyses China’s emergence and interests in Central Asia and the implications for future developments in the region. He also explores the possibility of the Belt and Road Initiative becoming the new lever of the balance of power in Eurasia.

| Summary/Abstract |
China’s expansionist and aggressive foreign policy based on its growing military power has worsened the prevailing tense scenario in the Asia– Pacific region. In response to Beijing’s seeming goal of establishing its hegemony, India has strengthened strategic relations with neighbours as well as further afield. Sudhanshu Tripathi avers that New Delhi now needs to evolve an institutional network of all Asian countries in the form of a regional bulwark of “Greater Asia” to consolidate its position.
