About the Book: Northeast Asia and South Asia: The Impact of Xi Jinping and
Donald Trump
This book was written during the Covid years. It focuses on the role of China
and the US in Northeast Asia and South Asia and examines their traditional
policies and the shape they had taken under Donald Trump and Xi Jinping. The
aggressive approaches of these two leaders resulted in a lot of strain on the
fabric of the delicate and balanced relationships in the regions. The book also
asks if there is any role for India as a middle power in the emerging dynamics
in these regions in
