Trump’s ‘Snakes and Ladders’: Akbar Blames Former US President for Global Uncertainty
Senior Congress leader Salman Khurshid, in a recent interview with ANI, attributed the current global instability to policies enacted during the Trump administration. He described the situation as a game of snakes and ladders, implying unpredictable consequences stemming from those decisions.
Khurshid’s comments, made on August 7, 2025, highlight growing concerns within India about the ripple effects of US foreign policy on the global economic and political landscape.
The former External Affairs Minister’s analogy underscores the perceived volatility and uncertainty currently impacting several nations. His statement is likely to fuel further debate on India’s strategic response to these challenges.
This assertion comes at a time when India is navigating complex geopolitical shifts, requiring careful recalibration of its foreign policy approach. The long-term implications for India’s economic growth and international standing remain a critical area of focus for policymakers.
