What happened
Economist Jeffrey Sachs stated that India could become the world's largest economy in the coming decades if the nation continues to invest in education, infrastructure, and climate safety. Sachs also argued that the era of Western dominance has ended, asserting that global stability now rests on a multipolar order involving India, the United States, China, and Russia.
Why it matters
Sachs noted that India's current share of global economic output is around 8-9 percent, and its projected growth would have positive implications for the global economy. He urged leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, to counter American unilateralism, which he described as a threat to international peace.
