The importance of reading editorials of reputed newspapers is not hidden from anybody. What causes obstruction are difficult words which act like speed-breakers<\/strong> forcing you to either refer to a dictionary for its meaning or simply guess it. While getting the meaning from the dictionary is the best way to understand it, sometimes a dictionary is not within your reach. Also, a number of aspirants get confused when they see more than one meaning next to a word in a dictionary<\/strong>. It becomes a difficult process for them to pick the relevant meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An elite (a select group that is superior in terms of ability or qualities to the rest of a group or society)<\/strong> club: On G-7 summit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The G-7 needs to be more open and less exclusive in an increasingly interlinked world<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The G-7 summit, at Carbis Bay, sent out two very strong messages. The first was driven by the United States\u2019s new President Joseph Biden and his vow that \u201cAmerica is back\u201d to take the lead on global challenges. The G-7 commitment to donate one billion coronavirus vaccines to poorer countries and to invest $12 trillion in their combined pandemic recovery plan depends on U.S. commitments for a large part. The special communiqu\u00e9 (an official announcement or statement, especially one made to the media)<\/strong> on \u201cOpen Societies\u201d for the G-7 outreach (the extent or length of reaching out)<\/strong>, and the invitation to \u201cfellow democracies\u201d India, Australia, South Korea and South Africa are also an extension of his stated commitment to convening a Democracy Summit this year. Even the slogan for the G-7, \u201cBuild Back Better\u201d, was a White House term to declare America\u2019s economy and jobs recovery plan. The second message was the consensus amongst the seven-member countries on countering China. The final G-7 communiqu\u00e9 holds no less than four direct references to China, each negative, including criticising Beijing for its rights record in Xinjiang and democratic freedoms in Hong Kong, its \u201cnon-market policies and practices…\u201d, concerns over its actions in the China Seas, and a demand for a transparent investigation into the origins of the COVID-19 virus. Though the bonhomie (cheerful friendliness)<\/strong> among the G-7 leaders was palpable ((of a feeling or atmosphere) so intense as to seem almost tangible)<\/strong>, the differences and contradictions in the grouping remain a challenge. Even two decades ago, questions were raised about whether the grouping (earlier, the G-8), could claim its mantle (If you take on the mantle of something such as a profession or an important job, you take on the responsibilities and duties which must be fulfilled by anyone who has this profession or job)<\/strong> as the world\u2019s \u201crichest\u201d countries, when emerging economies, China and India, are not included. On economic issues, the EU is a more representative unit than the individual European G-7 member countries. Finally, the premise of a group like the G-7, that of an exclusive club of the \u201chaves\u201d or \u201cthe best vs the rest\u201d, seems anachronistic (belonging to a period other than that being portrayed)<\/strong> in a world that is much more interlinked now than in 1975, when the grouping first came about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

India, a special guest to the G-7\/G-8 since 2003, has also maintained its independent course, especially on political issues. It is significant that the G-7 outreach communiqu\u00e9s that included the guest countries, did not make the same references to China as the main document, and MEA officials clarified that Chinese aggression was not raised at the outreaches, which focused on the pandemic, climate change and democratic freedoms. India voiced concerns about some clauses in the joint communiqu\u00e9 on Open Societies which condemned \u201crising authoritarianism (the enforcement or advocacy of strict obedience to authority at the expense of personal freedom)<\/strong>\u201d, net shutdowns, manipulation of information, and rights violations \u2014 areas where the Modi government has often been criticised itself. Addressing the session on Open Societies, Mr. Modi said that India is a \u201cnatural ally (a state formally cooperating with another for a military or other purpose)<\/strong>\u201d to the G-7. In the present, the Government will be expected to walk the talk on its commitments at the G-7 outreach, especially in the areas of information clampdowns (a severe or concerted attempt to suppress something)<\/strong>, given that India had the largest number of Internet shutdowns in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
