The White House says Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit is part of an effort to counter China. That is exactly the wrong mentality – similar to our attitude toward Russia that helped provoke the war in Ukraine.
We need to begin a new era. The world is too dangerous a place for major powers to always be thinking in terms of “countering” each other. We share this planet.
Our goal should not be how to counter each other but rather how to collaborate with each other. From nuclear bombs to climate crisis to AI, the most critical issues must be faced together.
Stand firm for what we believe in, yes – and not be anybody’s fool – but we must free ourselves from the default perspective of us-versus-them, the reactive and oppositional mentality that inevitably leads to conflict.
The only way the world will be safe for our children’s children is if we learn to wage peace.
