On May 12, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in an address to the nation, “Time has taught us that we must make 'local' the mantra of our lives.

“There is a rapid movement of removing these APIs and the manufacturing of that out of China to trusted allies like India, bring them back home domestically. All that is going to be economic pain on Xi Jinping and the communist party”, he said.

“I would recommend that all ties with China be cut-off until they start playing by the normal standards of the world. I don’t expect them to be like US or India but I expect them to be respectful and honour human rights”, he said.
