India is pivoting towards Europe amid concerns over its reliance on the US, particularly in light of unpredictable policies under Donald Trump and the strategic threat posed by China.

However, India must navigate existing frictions, including its stance on Russia, while Europe must establish itself as a reliable partner to facilitate deeper cooperation.
