In the past year, the war in Gaza has pushed many governments to take clear public positions, often framing foreign policy as a question of moral alignment. India has responded differently. New Delhi has condemned civilian casualties, maintained its relationship with Israel, and continued diplomatic engagement with Gulf countries, while avoiding strong public statements that would place it firmly one either side of the conflict.
This restrained approach has drawn mixed reactions. Some observers see it as excessive caution, while others interpret it as deliberately ambiguous. India has neither stepped back from Israel nor openly aligned itself with Arab positions. Instead, it has limited its public messaging as tensions spread across the Middle East and begin to affect the wider region.
