Indian Prime Minister Modi once again condemned Iran. Today, Modi wrote: "I spoke with my brother, Sheikh Tamim, the Emir of Qatar. We stand firmly with Qatar and strongly condemn Iran's violation of its sovereignty and territorial integrity. We emphasize that it is urgent to restore peace and stability in the region through dialogue and diplomatic means. I also express my gratitude for his continuous support and care for Indian expatriates in Qatar during this challenging period."
Commentary: India and Iran are both members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and the BRICS. However, after the war initiated by the US and Israel against Iran, Modi has repeatedly spoken out against Iran firing missiles at US military bases in the Gulf. There are millions of Indian workers in the Gulf, which is a key factor for India's overseas remittances, employment, and livelihood stability. This move by Modi is to show overseas Indians that "I am doing everything to protect you."
