India, Europe, and the Ukraine War: Perceptions Beyond Brussels

In this episode of The European Dialogue, we explore how the European Union’s response to Russia’s war against Ukraine is perceived beyond Europe — with a particular focus on India and the wider Global South. What does Europe’s value-based foreign policy look like from New Delhi? And what does this mean for the EU’s global credibility today? This podcast is part of The European Dialogue podcast series. You can listen on Spotify, YouTube, or SoundCloud. Links below. We are joined by Rahul Desarda, Assistant Lecturer at Jindal Global Law School and Assistant Director of the Mahatma Gandhi Centre for Peace Studies, for a timely conversation recorded in Jakarta during the EU-VALUES International Conference hosted by BINUS University in December 2025. Drawing on his research in international law and peace studies, Rahul unpacks India’s position on the war in Ukraine and situates it within a broader foreign-policy approach shaped by strategic autonomy and multipolarity. Key Topics Covered: ✅ India’s position on Russia’s war against Ukraine ✅ How Indian policy, media, and academic debates view EU sanctions and military assistance ✅ What Global South perspectives reveal about Europe’s normative power ✅ Comparisons with Southeast Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa ✅ How the EU can strengthen the credibility of its value-based foreign policy and multilateral engagement Recorded against the backdrop of ongoing geopolitical fragmentation, this conversation offers critical insight into how Europe is seen beyond its own borders — and what that means for the future of global cooperation. 🔔 Stay updated with EU-VALUES.
