Explained Strait of Hormuz crisis exposes India’s energy vulnerabilities:How goodwill with Iran remains 'only saviour' as supplies left stranded Mentioned The ongoing conflict between Iran, Israel, and the United States has pushed West Asia into a volatile phase with tensions escalating rapidly across the region. One of the most critical areas affected is the Strait of Hormuz, through which nearly one-fifth of the world’s oil supply passes. While Iran claims the Hormuz Strait isn’t officially closed, the Persian Gulf is currently a ‘no-go’ zone for most commercial vessels. Missiles or drones have struck at least 18 ships in the last two weeks. The Strait handles about 20% of seaborne oil trade and LNG supplies. Major exporters like Qatar are stuck and are unable to transport their natural gas out to Asia or Europe. What began as a military escalation has now gone far beyond, to the extent that it is now impacting global trade.

PART 1 Exclusive interview where Anubandh KATÉ brings together India's leading investigative journalists & authors Ravi NAIR and Paranjoy GUHA-THAKURTA Interviewed "Scandals, especially arms deal scandals, have a habit of re-surfacing unexpectedly." - N. RAM, The HINDU The book, "The Rafale Deal: Flying Lies? The Role of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in India’s Biggest Defence Scandal" was published in December 2022. Here's an exclusive interview where Anubandh KATÉ brings together India's leading investigative journalists & authors Ravi NAIR and Paranjoy GUHA-THAKURTA, along with Yann PHILIPPIN of Mediapart, France. In this first part of the three session interviews, we minutely dissect the India specific details of this mega defense deal which has long been mired in corruption quagmire. In this interview, Yann PHILIPPIN claims that in the thick of this sensitive and costly negotiation, through Sushen GUPTA (Dassault's Indian intermediate), Dassault Aviation managed to get hold of confidential documents of the India Negotiating Team (INT) as well as the details of the revised offer of its competitor Eurofighter (with 20% discount). This severely weakened India's chances to procure a fair deal. He further claims that both the French and the Indian governments are refusing to cooperate with the investigation probe initiated by the French judiciary. In the third session of this series of interviews, we will be joined as well by renowned French investigative journalist, Ariane LAVRILLEUX, who will present to us the "Egypt Papers" (sell of French armaments, including Rafale to Egypt).

PART 2 Anubandh KATÉ continues his conversation with India's leading investigative journalists & authors Ravi NAIR and Paranjoy GUHA-THAKURTA, along with Yann PHILIPPIN of Mediapart, France. Interviewed Hello, The book, "The Rafale Deal: Flying Lies? The Role of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in India’s Biggest Defense Scandal" was published in December 2022. Here's a second part of the three session interviews, where Anubandh KATÉ continues his conversation with India's leading investigative journalists & authors Ravi NAIR and Paranjoy GUHA-THAKURTA, along with Yann PHILIPPIN of Mediapart, France. In this session, we go deeper in our analysis of the India specific details of this hugely controversial defense deal. In a dramatic turnaround of events, the Prime Minister of India, Narendra MODI, on an official visit to France in April 2015 scrapped the original deal to procure 126 Rafale jets (18 fly away, manufactured in France + 108 to be manufactured in India by HAL, with a Transfer of Technology clause) from France (Dassault Aviation) for the Indian Air Force (IAF). Further, India’s renowned public sector company HAL was replaced by a loss making private firm, Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (ADAG), with no prior experience in the defense sector. The authors of the book argue that although the CEO of Dassault Aviation, Eric TRAPPIER had publicly avowed excellent working relations with HAL, Dassault Aviation was reluctant to take responsibility of the HAL – India manufactured 108 Rafale. Further, the then Defense minister Nirmala SITHARAMAN had accused HAL of non-cooperation with Dassault Aviation, withholding huge sums of due payments to it. The repercussions of scrapping of the original deal meant that the Indian Air Force (IAF) continues to be deficient in its required Squadron strength. In the third session of this series of interviews, we will be joined as well by renowned French investigative journalist, Ariane LAVRILLEUX, who will present to us the "Egypt Papers" (sell of French armaments, including Rafale to Egypt).
