Myanmar Mess: China's Role | China Covid Repeat? | Pak-B'Desh: Foes Turn Friends | Trudeau Trolled

In today's episode of India Ascends with Gaurie Dwivedi: On one hand, China is making overtures to the junta, supporting infrastructure projects like the New Yangon City and the Muse-Mandalay railway. On the other, it uses its 'carrot and stick' strategy to pressure the EAOs, cutting off resources like electricity and supply chains to force compliance. It's a new year, and with it there are new expectations. So, what all should India look forward to in 2025? India is facing an escalating threat as military ties between Pakistan and Bangladesh surge to unprecedented levels. The high-stakes power play could alter the balance of security in South Asia. In a move that's raising eyebrows across the globe, China has ramped up its monitoring of respiratory diseases just as winter sets in. By all accounts, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had a bad 2024, and with mounting political pressure and public backlash threatening his leadership 2025 doesn't look any better.
