The Indian government has seen Greta Thunberg’s attempt to interfere in its affairs very badly. The Greta document makes strong allegations against the Indian state, describes the ruling Conservative Indian BJP party as fascist and accuses India of withdrawing from democracy.
Current BJP leader Narendra Modi, Indian Prime Minister since 2014, is a Trump-like figure with a loyal, dedicated base. He was elected in 2014 for his spectacular economic reforms in the Indian state of Gujarat. But Modi’s market-oriented economic reforms and the rapid dismantling of India’s old, dying command structures have disrupted the lives of people who felt comfortable under the old system. It is this smoldering resentment that the Greta Document seems to be aimed at.
Note that Greta deleted the original document before I could get a direct copy. So this is a used copy.
An interesting result of this affair: after years of geopolitical tension, India and China have finally come to an agreement. neither of them like Greta Thunberg.
Update (EW): If you haven’t read it, The document appears to contain a plan to disrupt India’s food supplyby convincing the allies to limit pesticide exports to India while encouraging farmers to strike. Please read the document before making a judgment.
