India’s carefully curated image as a global diplomatic heavyweight is facing renewed scrutiny, as questions emerge over its absence from potential US–Iran mediation efforts despite years of high-profile leader-level engagement and foreign policy branding.

In this episode, The Blue Newsroom hosted by Amber Shamsi examines the growing criticism within India over its diplomacy, debates whether Pakistan’s strategic location and access to Tehran have elevated its role as a key interlocutor for Washington and analyzes the broader geopolitical implications for regional influence, including risks and opportunities for both India and Pakistan.
