New Delhi, June 23, 2025, (ANI): On Iran-Israel conflict, former Foreign Secretary, Shyam Saran says, "...I hope that in the days to come, the wisdom of India is brought to bear on this kind of situation and that we play a bigger role as we can in terms of the making of a new world order." He says, "I can't say what will emerge in the future, but I can certainly say that instead of a global order, we have great global disorder and any kind of norms of interstate relations that most countries have observed, those norms have all been abandoned. The kind of human suffering that has resulted, for example, in Gaza, what may happen, for example, in Iran, so these are very troubled times, and India also faces a very challenging situation..."
