India shouldn't be afraid about China & RCEP, needs to engage with Pak, says Shyam Saran

#ThePrintInterviews

Former foreign secretary, Shyam Saran speaks to ThePrint's Jyoti Malhotra on a variety of issues but mainly the echo of the 1991 debate about opening up India's economy to the world. These include PM P. V. Narasimha Rao's politically risky call which benefitted India hugely, the 1998 nuclear tests ordered by then PM Atal Behari Vajpayee which showed the world that India had a spine and how India's decision not to join the China-led RCEP today, leaves Asia free for China to expand its influence.
