📍 Why in News?

🟢 Iran and the UAE, despite being rivals in the West Asian conflict, used the Summit for a high-level bilateral meeting.
🟢 The position of Saudi Arabia, which had not formally joined the group, remained ambiguous.
📍 India’s Role as Global South Balancer
🟢 India’s fourth BRICS chairmanship strengthened its image as a Global South balancer.
🟢 India maintained engagement with both sides of a divided global order while also pursuing bilateral interests.
🟢 PM Modi’s engagement with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian helped address concerns amid India’s relations with the U.S. and Israel.
🟢 The meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping provided an opportunity to reaffirm political will to normalise India-China ties.
🟢 Engagement with ASEAN and African leaders reinforced India’s ties with the Global South.
📍 Significance
🟢 The Summit demonstrated that countries with significant differences can still build consensus on issues of global importance.
🟢 It highlighted the growing importance of emerging economies in shaping global power equations.
🟢 BRICS is increasingly being positioned as a platform for multipolarity, Global South cooperation and reformed multilateralism.

| 3 |  🔆 Pakistan’s Westward Turn: Strategic Depth or Overstretch?
📍 Why in News?
🟢 The Pakistan–Kuwait defence cooperation agreement signed on 27 August 2026 reflects Pakistan’s expanding strategic footprint in West Asia.
🟢 This comes alongside Pakistan’s membership of the Saudi Arabia–Türkiye–Pakistan defence arrangement and its emerging role as an intermediary between Iran and the United States.
📍 Historical Roots of Pakistan’s West Asian Orientation
🟢 During the Cold War, Pakistan, Iran and Türkiye were linked through CENTO and later the Regional Cooperation for Development.
🟢 After Pakistan’s defeat and dismemberment in 1971, it increasingly emphasised its Islamic identity and strengthened military relations with Saudi Arabia and Gulf monarchies.
🟢 The Islamic Summit in Lahore (1974) symbolised this greater engagement with the Arab world.
📍 From Bilateral Ties to Institutionalisation
🟢 The Makkah Agreement of 7 August stipulated that an armed attack against one member would be regarded as an attack against all.
🟢 Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Türkiye moved to give this arrangement greater institutional substance.
🟢 At the 31 August meeting in Istanbul, Foreign and Defence Ministers and military chiefs decided to establish a permanent secretariat in Saudi Arabia, with a Pakistani Secretary-General for three years.
🟢 They also agreed to strengthen military interoperability and defence-industrial cooperation, including joint technology development and production.
📍 Emerging Contradictions
🟢 Pakistan’s expanding West Asian role brings contradictory commitments.
🟢 Renewed Houthi attacks against Saudi Arabia could test the Makkah agreement’s collective-defence provision.
🟢 The Houthi capture of Mocha port and Perim Island could affect Saudi shipping through the Bab-el-Mandeb.
🟢 With the Strait of Hormuz effectively closed by Iran, Saudi Arabia could potentially face pressure to launch a larger conflict against the Houthis.
🟢 This would create a dilemma for Pakistan because it simultaneously seeks relations with Saudi Arabia, Türkiye and Iran.
📍 Pakistan’s Expanding Strategic Roles
🟢 Pakistan seeks to be Saudi Arabia’s security partner.
🟢 It views Türkiye as a strategic ally, particularly on Kashmir.
🟢 It has developed a role as an Iran interlocutor and intermediary with Washington.
🟢 It is also becoming an increasingly important security provider to Gulf monarchies.
📍 Implications for India
🟢 Pakistan’s deeper West Asian integration could provide it with defence in depth, Saudi financial resources and Turkish defence technology.
🟢 Pakistan’s nuclear capabilities further enhance its strategic value to Arab states concerned about regional instability.
🟢 However, its growing commitments could also create strategic overstretch, diverting diplomatic, military and intelligence resources away from its traditional focus on India.
📍 Why India Should Not View It Only Negatively
🟢 Saudi Arabia, the UAE and other Gulf states have major economic and strategic relationships with India.
🟢 These states are unlikely to sacrifice their interests with India for Pakistan.
🟢 India should therefore continue deepening strategic and economic engagement with Gulf countries as a counterbalance to Pakistan’s expanding footprint.
📍 Strategic Paradox
🟢 Pakistan’s Westward turn can provide greater strategic depth, but deeper involvement in West Asian security arrangements also exposes it to the region’s conflicts.
🟢 The challenge is balancing commitments to Saudi Arabia, Iran, Türkiye and the United States when their interests diverge.
🟢 Thus, strategic depth could gradually become strategic overstretch.
📌 UPSC Prelims Quick Recall
🟢 Recent development: Pakistan–Kuwait defence cooperation agreement — 27 August 2026
🟢 Makkah Agreement: Collective-defence arrangement
🟢 Permanent secretariat: Saudi Arabia
🟢 Key partners: Pakistan–Saudi Arabia–Türkiye

| 4 | 🟢 A stronger NDB can make BRICS more relevant as a platform for Global South economic cooperation without requiring a common currency or direct confrontation with existing institutions.
📌 UPSC Prelims Quick Recall
🟢 NDB established: 2015
🟢 Headquarters: Shanghai
🟢 Founding members: Brazil, Russia, India, China & South Africa
🟢 Purpose: Infrastructure & sustainable development finance
🟢 Key advantage: Local-currency lending
🟢 Target: 30% of lending in local currencies
🟢 India’s priority: Greater capital, membership expansion & rupee-denominated financing

| 5 |  🔆 At BRICS, India Must Bank on the New Development Bank (NDB)
📍 Why in News?
🟢 At the 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi, India’s approach to BRICS is being discussed in the context of strengthening the New Development Bank (NDB) as a practical instrument of cooperation.
🟢 The NDB can help BRICS expand economic cooperation through greater capital, membership and local-currency lending.
📍 BRICS: Growing Economic Weight, Limited Institutional Influence
🟢 When BRICS was formed, its members contributed around 20% of global GDP but held only 11% of voting share at the IMF.
🟢 With expansion, BRICS now accounts for nearly 40% of global GDP and 55% of the global population, while its IMF voting share remains below 11%.
🟢 Despite its economic weight, differences among members make it difficult to develop a coherent geopolitical identity.
📍 Why NDB Matters?
🟢 Established by BRICS in 2015, the NDB was created to mobilise resources for infrastructure and sustainable development projects in BRICS and other emerging/developing economies.
🟢 It provides an avenue for BRICS cooperation without directly challenging or confronting Western financial institutions.
🟢 India should use the NDB to maximise BRICS’ potential without strengthening Beijing’s overall influence.
📍 NDB’s Portfolio
🟢 The NDB has approved around $43 billion across 139 projects since 2015, according to the article.
🟢 The active portfolio shown in the accompanying data is concentrated among the founding members, with China and India together accounting for 51%.
🟢 Major sectors include:
🟢 Transport infrastructure — 38%
🟢 COVID-19 emergency assistance — 25%
🟢 Multiple areas — 12%
🟢 Clean energy & energy efficiency — 10%
🟢 Water & sanitation — 9%
📍 Challenges Before the NDB
🟢 The NDB has lagged behind institutions such as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) in lending and disbursement.
🟢 Its lending capacity is constrained by a weak asset-growth trajectory and restrictions arising from sanctions on Russia.
🟢 The bank also faces challenges to its credit standing and dollar funding costs.
🟢 It has an exceptionally slow disbursement rate; according to the article, only about $20 billion of approved loans had been disbursed.
📍 Russia & Sanctions Challenge
🟢 Not all founding members can match higher capital commitments, particularly Russia, which has been heavily sanctioned.
🟢 Sanctions have strained the NDB’s credit standing and dollar funding costs.
🟢 The NDB has extended no new credit to Russia since March 2022.
📍 Breaking the Asset Bottleneck
🟢 One proposed solution is for the five founding countries to increase their paid-up capital.
🟢 However, domestic economic constraints mean that not every founder can make higher commitments.
🟢 India should therefore focus on long-delayed membership expansion and broader participation.
📍 India & the NDB
🟢 The NDB has supported Indian projects, including metro rail systems, demonstrating its potential as a development-finance institution.
🟢 India should push for:
🟢 Greater NDB capitalisation
🟢 Expansion of membership
🟢 Local-currency lending
🟢 Financing for emerging markets and developing countries
🟢 Stronger focus on infrastructure and sustainable development.
📍 Local-Currency Lending
🟢 A major strength of the NDB is its preference for local-currency lending.
🟢 This can reduce dependence on the US dollar, particularly during periods of global economic and geopolitical volatility.
🟢 The NDB’s General Strategy targets 30% of lending in member countries’ local currencies.
🟢 For India, pushing the long-delayed rupee bond could help deepen this mechanism. | 401 |

| 9 |  🔆 Saudi Arabia Pipeline Outage Puts Global Oil Supply at Risk
📍 Why in News?
🟢 Saudi Arabia shut its East-West oil pipeline following drone strikes by Iran-aligned Houthis in Yemen.
🟢 The disruption could put up to 4% of global oil supply at risk if the pipeline does not resume operations within days.
📍 East-West Oil Pipeline
🟢 Saudi Arabia uses the pipeline to transport around 4 million barrels of oil per day to Yanbu, a port on the Red Sea.
🟢 This route enables Saudi Arabia to bypass the Strait of Hormuz for a significant portion of its oil exports.
🟢 With the pipeline out of service, Yanbu has stocks for only about 5–7 days of exports, according to industry sources.
📍 Alternative Export Routes
🟢 Saudi Arabia also has stocks for several days to supply customers from Egyptian ports.
🟢 These include Ain Sukhnа on the Red Sea and Sidi Kerir on the Mediterranean.
🟢 However, available stocks are not sufficient for a prolonged pipeline outage.
📍 Houthi–Saudi Escalation
🟢 The Houthis claimed further attacks on Saudi Arabia.
🟢 They stated that a military base in Sharurah province, in Saudi Arabia’s Najran region, was targeted.
🟢 Houthi media also reported Saudi strikes on Saada in northern Yemen.
📍 Global Energy Significance
🟢 The disruption highlights the vulnerability of global oil supplies to instability around West Asian energy corridors.
🟢 Any prolonged interruption can affect oil availability, prices, shipping and energy security.
🟢 It also demonstrates the strategic importance of alternative routes that can reduce dependence on maritime chokepoints.
📍 Humanitarian Impact
🟢 The escalating conflict has also triggered displacement in Yemen.
🟢 The International Organization for Migration reported that displacement had reached 85,818 people.
📌 UPSC Prelims Quick Recall
🟢 Pipeline: Saudi Arabia’s East-West Oil Pipeline
🟢 Destination: Yanbu, Red Sea
🟢 Capacity mentioned: ~4 million barrels/day
🟢 Alternative Egyptian ports: Ain Sukhna & Sidi Kerir
🟢 Attackers: Iran-aligned Houthis in Yemen
🟢 Key region: Najran, Saudi Arabia
🟢 Importance: Bypass route around the Strait of Hormuz
📌 Mains Practice Question
“The security of energy corridors in West Asia has implications far beyond the region.” Discuss in the context of the Saudi East-West oil pipeline and global energy security.

| 10 |  🔆 Unilateral Sanctions: Impact on Food Security & Global Economic Order
📍 Why in News?
🟢 Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian called for a stronger BRICS role in building a more just international order.
🟢 He criticised unilateral sanctions, stating that they directly affect global food security and people’s welfare.
🟢 He also backed greater trade in national currencies and strengthening the New Development Bank (NDB) to enhance BRICS’ economic resilience.
📍 Concerns over Unilateral Sanctions
🟢 Pezeshkian argued that excessive dependence on existing financial and trade systems makes emerging economies vulnerable to political shocks.
🟢 Unilateral sanctions can affect food security and people’s welfare, particularly when they disrupt trade and financial flows.
🟢 He called for expanding trade in national currencies and strengthening the NDB to reduce economic vulnerabilities.
📍 Economic Resilience through BRICS
🟢 BRICS should evolve beyond a framework for cooperation among emerging economies into a mechanism for building a more balanced and inclusive global economic order.
🟢 Resilience, cooperation and sustainability should be translated into practical action.
🟢 Pezeshkian highlighted the need to transform the Global South’s capacities into shared capabilities.
📍 Security & Economic Resilience
🟢 According to Pezeshkian, economic resilience cannot be sustained without security.
🟢 He referred to military aggression by the United States and Israel against Iran and warned that attacks on economic, energy and development infrastructure can have regional and global repercussions.
🟢 He stressed that protecting civilians and preventing attacks on civilian targets is an international responsibility.
📍 Gaza & Lebanon
🟢 Pezeshkian said people in Gaza and Lebanon continue to face the consequences of what he described as “crimes and genocide.”
🟢 He called upon BRICS to play a more effective role in defending national sovereignty, territorial integrity and prohibition of the use of force.
📍 Global Governance & Global South
🟢 The international community should not merely manage current crises but build a system that strengthens nations against future crises.
🟢 Pezeshkian called for transforming the capacities of the Global South into shared capabilities.
🟢 He stressed the importance of knowledge and innovation as key BRICS agenda items.
🟢 AI and emerging technologies should empower nations rather than become instruments of domination.
📍 Iran’s Role in BRICS
🟢 Iran highlighted its geopolitical position and energy and transit capacities as potential contributions to BRICS.
🟢 It expressed readiness to contribute its capacities to BRICS cooperation.
🟢 Iran also emphasised that resilience requires sustained cooperation, justice and sustainability, which are difficult to achieve without peace and security.
📌 UPSC Prelims Quick Recall
🟢 Speaker: Masoud Pezeshkian, President of Iran
🟢 Platform: BRICS Summit
🟢 Key concern: Unilateral sanctions → food security & people’s welfare
🟢 Proposals: National-currency trade + stronger NDB
🟢 Focus: Global South, economic resilience, knowledge & innovation

| 17 |  🔆 India Pushes for 10 Global Governance Reform Proposals at BRICS
📍 Why in News?
🟢 Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged BRICS leaders to jointly prepare 10 proposals for global governance reform during the 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi.
🟢 He proposed developing these into a BRICS Reform Road Map by the next Summit.
📍 Why Global Governance Reform?
🟢 BRICS has completed 20 years and, according to PM Modi, is entering a phase of greater maturity and responsibility.
🟢 He highlighted the imbalance between decision-makers and those affected by their decisions.
🟢 The objective is to transform the Global South from “rule-takers” into “rule-shapers.”
📍 Three Core Principles
🟢 Representation — decision-making structures should reflect contemporary economic and demographic realities.
🟢 Responsiveness — global institutions must provide effective solutions to emerging problems.
🟢 Rule-making — developing countries should participate meaningfully in shaping global rules.
📍 Reform of Global Institutions
🟢 PM Modi called for a time-bound reform roadmap for the UN Security Council, including text-based negotiations with definite timelines and outcomes.
🟢 He emphasised that voting power, leadership positions and policy priorities in financial institutions must reflect present-day economic realities.
🟢 Countries driving global economic growth should have a greater role in shaping global economic governance.
📍 Global South: From Rule-Takers to Rule-Shapers
🟢 The Global South is often on the front line of global crises, but has limited influence over global decision-making.
🟢 PM Modi proposed transforming the existing “pyramid of privilege” into a platform of partnership, where every country has a voice and stake.
📍 Implementation Mechanism
🟢 A BRICS Continuity and Implementation Mechanism was proposed so that the BRICS Troika can follow up on initiatives and outcomes.
🟢 PM Modi suggested creating a secure digital repository to record every decision, deadline and implementation status.
🟢 Greater speed, scale and last-mile impact were emphasised.
📍 Seafarers’ Emergency Support Network
🟢 PM Modi proposed a Seafarers’ Emergency Support Network.
🟢 It could connect maritime authorities and missions of BRICS countries to provide disaster alerts, medical assistance, information to families and evacuation support.
📍 Emerging Technologies & Global Rules
🟢 AI, cyberspace, outer space, biotechnology and critical technologies are not only future opportunities but also areas where the rules of the future are being shaped.
🟢 India called for transforming the Global South from rule-takers into rule-shapers in these domains.
📍 Significance for India
🟢 Supports India’s long-standing demand for greater representation of developing countries in global institutions.
🟢 Strengthens India’s Global South leadership and reform-oriented multilateralism.
🟢 Connects BRICS cooperation with practical outcomes rather than only declarations.
🟢 Reinforces India’s vision of a more representative, responsive and participatory global order.
📌 Mains Practice Question
“The Global South must move from being rule-takers to rule-shapers.” Discuss India’s approach to global governance reform through BRICS.

| 19 |  🔆 The New Lords of the Red Sea: Houthis vs Saudi Arabia
📍 Why in News?
🟢 The Houthi (Ansar Allah) movement in Yemen has expanded its territorial and maritime influence, raising concerns over the security of the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
🟢 Years of warfare, ideological commitment, control of the Red Sea coast and sustained Iranian support have helped the group evolve into a formidable territorial and naval force.
📍 Who are the Houthis?
🟢 The Houthis, or Ansar Allah, are a Zaydi Shia movement based in northern Yemen.
🟢 The movement’s roots lie in the “Believing Youth” revivalist group founded in northern Yemen in the 1990s.
🟢 It drew ideological influence from the 1979 Iranian Revolution and the rise of Hezbollah in Lebanon.
🟢 Zaydis constitute roughly one-third of Yemen’s population.
📍 Rise of the Houthi Movement
🟢 In 2004, an arrest warrant against Houthi leader Hussein al-Houthi triggered an insurgency.
🟢 The movement eventually grew stronger and captured Sana’a in 2014.
🟢 Saudi Arabia formed a coalition against the Houthis in 2015, but failed to dislodge them.
🟢 A ceasefire in 2022 allowed the Houthis to consolidate their position in northern and northwestern Yemen.
📍 Control of the Red Sea Coast
🟢 The Houthis expanded their control over important coastal areas and the Red Sea shipping route.
🟢 According to the article, they captured the Red Sea cities of Mokha and Dhubab and Perim Island in the Bab el-Mandeb, extending control along the coast and into the strait.
🟢 This gives the group greater strategic leverage over one of the world’s important maritime chokepoints.
📍 Iran–Houthi Link
🟢 The Houthis have received sustained Iranian support.
🟢 The article describes the Houthis as part of a wider network of Iran-aligned Shia forces in West Asia.
🟢 Their growing capabilities provide Iran and Ansar Allah with potential leverage over critical maritime routes.
📍 Two Critical Maritime Chokepoints
🟢 Strait of Hormuz: connects the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman/Arabian Sea.
🟢 Bab el-Mandeb: connects the Red Sea with the Gulf of Aden, providing the maritime gateway towards the Indian Ocean.
🟢 The article notes that more than 20% of global seaborne oil trade passed through the Strait of Hormuz before the U.S.–Israel conflict with Iran.
🟢 The Red Sea typically carries around 12–15% of global trade.
📍 Saudi Arabia’s Vulnerability
🟢 Saudi Arabia faces pressure because disruption around Hormuz can affect its East-West Pipeline, which connects oil fields in the east with ports on the Red Sea.
🟢 This provides an alternative route for Saudi crude exports when Hormuz faces disruption.
🟢 Houthi control around Bab el-Mandeb therefore creates an additional strategic pressure point.
📍 Impact on Global Trade & India
🟢 Disruption of Bab el-Mandeb can affect shipping between Asia and Europe through the Suez Canal.
🟢 Rerouting vessels around the Cape of Good Hope increases voyage time, fuel consumption and freight costs.
🟢 For India, prolonged disruption can affect trade with Europe, energy supplies, shipping costs and supply chains.
📍 Strategic Significance
🟢 The Houthi rise demonstrates how a non-state armed group can acquire territorial, military and maritime capabilities.
🟢 Control of a chokepoint gives a regional actor influence disproportionate to its economic size.
🟢 The simultaneous importance of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb gives Iran-aligned actors potential leverage over two critical maritime gateways.
🟢 It highlights the growing importance of maritime security, chokepoint resilience and diversified trade routes.
📌 Mains Practice Question
“Control over maritime chokepoints can provide non-state actors with strategic leverage far beyond their territorial boundaries.” Discuss with reference to the Houthis and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
