The Global South trusts India's leadership and Prime Minister Narendra Modi can sort out issues between Russia and Ukraine, Bhutan Prime Minister Dasho Tshering Tobgay said at NDTV World Summit today. "The world needs India and I am very happy that you have identified this century as India's century," he said, referring to the theme of the NDTV summit.
"India has the largest population in the world, it has a booming economy. It has crossed 3 trillion US dollars, it should have crossed 5 trillion US dollars had it not been for Covid. India has almost 35 million people in the diaspora. By every measure, this is India's century. But in one measure, you stand out: leadership, and trust in that leadership. Not just Indians trusting India's leadership, but the Global South trusting India's leadership," he said.
