EAM Jaishankar in his speech highlighted how the world as a collective is seeking a stable and predictable environment for trade and investment.
"At the same time, it is imperative that economic practices are fair, transparent and to everyone's benefit. When there are multiple disruptions, our objective should be to proof it against such shocks. That means creating more resilient, reliable, redundant and shorter supply chains.

Progress in that regard will contribute to regional self-sufficiency and relieve anxieties at times of uncertainty", he said.
