How Ukraine Has Reconfigured the EU’s Indo-Pacific Ambitions (Part 1)
(To be continued in Part2)

This time I would like tentatively to share the insights of Dr. Jagannath Panda, the Head of the Stockholm Centre for South Asian and Indo-Pacific Affairs at the Institute for Security and Development Policy, Sweden.

The crisis in Ukraine is already having multiple repercussions across the world beyond its grave humanitarian impact. 
Geopolitically, it has already exposed the fault lines among allies (for example, India versus the other Quadrilateral Security Dialogue, or Quad, states); highlighted the unwitting coming together of rivals, namely India and China albeit through strategic silence; reduced the credibility of the United States and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in stopping an unnecessary invasion or in de-escalating tensions; and spurred unprecedented unity in Europe. 

Besides, the European Union’s recent approval of a Strategic Compass, ahead of the adoption of the latest NATO Strategic Concept likely in June (Madrid summit), is a late but welcome military and strategic shift for European security policy.
