The global order is changing — and India’s role in the new power structure is being decided right now.
In this episode of Dostcast, geopolitics expert Abhijit Chavda breaks down how trade deals, power politics, and global alliances are reshaping the world. From India’s trade deal with Europe to America’s rule-breaking foreign policy, Saudi Arabia’s sovereignty, Israel–US relations, and possible instability in China — this conversation goes beyond headlines and into first principles.
We also zoom out to the individual level: how to think independently, become an autodidact, balance solitude with ambition, and why nerds and deep thinkers will thrive in the coming decade.
This episode is essential viewing if you want to understand geopolitics, India’s future, global power dynamics, and independent thinking.
Watch till the end — the final segment ties the world’s chaos back to personal clarity.
