India has "outmanoeuvred" Pakistan by effectively branding it as a "regional pariah" during Goa BRICS-BIMSTEC summit where the country presented itself as a "bright spot", strengthening its case for the NSG membership and a permanent seat in UNSC, state-run Chinese media said on Wednesday.
"Given the uneasy background of Indo-Pak tension, which escalated last month, India's inclusion of BIMSTEC (The Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation) bore even thicker geo-strategic connotations," an article in the state-run Global Times said.
"As India invited all countries in the region except Pakistan, it in effect consigned Pakistan to be a regional pariah," the article titled 'India uses BRICS to outmanoeuvre Pakistan', it said.
Referring to India's decision not to attend the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) summit to be held in Islamabad after the Uri attack, it said, "The collapse of the SAARC summit presented India a rare opportunity to get rid of any constraints Islamabad may have over the regional group, as the same group would soon gather in Goa in the absence of Pakistan".
BIMSTEC also made a major difference for India at the Goa summit, it said.
"A major difference between the Goa summit and the previous ones was that New Delhi put the (BIMSTEC) in tandem with the BRICS meeting," it said.
By bringing regional countries - Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Myanmar, Nepal and Bhutan - together with the major emerging economies of the BRICS, the daily said, India breathed legitimacy and substance into an otherwise "hallow and moribund acronym organisation".
