What India’s break with SCO reveals about its stance on Israel-Iran conflict

While the SCO—a China-led group of 10 nations—united in criticism, India’s silence stood out. This isn’t just diplomatic noise; it signals how carefully New Delhi is navigating its relationships with both Israel and Iran, two key players in a volatile region where India has strategic and economic stakes.
