This is a very big change in what is currently associated with the memory and commemoration of World War II as compared with after the war. Yet there was a distinct bias toward the meditation on victory as allied and mourning of sacrifice. But over the years, there has been a shift in focus to everyone who gets a disease, war participants and non-combatants as well.
-From Victory to Commemoration: The value has shifted from the victory celebration to recalling the great losses of human lives during the wars. It is has now extended to the celebration of genocide victims, slave and other atrocities.
Recognition of Different Experiences: There is now an understanding of how various groups whether civilians or soldiers , or resistance movements experienced the war differently.
This symbolizes the triumph of peace, reunion and understanding in striking out armed conflicts and future futile conflicts that ravage this world.
Lessons to Learn from International Relations Today:
-The Dangers of Nationalism and Extremism: War was brought about by the increased nationalist and extreme political parties during that period. Such is a realistic depiction of what may happen in extreme conditions when nationalism is allowed to run rampant and how that equilibrium may be regained through fostering cross national and cross cultural collaboration.
-Importance of Multilateralism: That was evidenced by the war where the global cooperation for the most part of the twentieth century remained a cornerstone of a relative world peace and security. Other organizations like United Nations were created to assist in dealing with such issues and to ensure that there weren’t more wars.
-The Value of Human Rights: What happened during the war proved that human rights should not be violated and that it is important to protect endangered people- a possibility that would not have come to life if it was not for the Brave Nelson Mandela.
The Findings of World War II to today remain an essential part of the historical memory of the twentieth century, which also should serve as significant lessons for the modern international relations. Going back to history can help us design the best life for every individual who plans to exist in the future.

India’s current foreign policy towards China is a combination of collaboration and cutthroat competition with strategic hedging from it. Ties between the two countries have been strained, especially after a border standoff in 2020. While such initiatives have aimed to thaw ties, disagreements over substantial issues like territorial disputes—China is sending out some heavy artillery in South Asia as well —and India’s strategic partnerships with the US ensure that problems will endure.
India has adopted a composite strategy that combines diplomacy and force in dealing with China. On the other, multilateral forums like the SCO and BRICS where it is involved with China on several issues. On the other side, India has bolstered its border defenses and stepped up strategic alignments with China wary like USA and Japan.
The Russia-Ukraine war has brought a new dimension and problem to India’s foreign policy. India, however, has struck a cautious note by refraining from naming Russia and instead called for dialogue & respect of sovereignty besides maintaining strategic neutrality. This policy shift has its roots in India’s traditional closeness to Russia, notably in defence and energy. Of course, India could not afford to go out against Western powers particularly the United States which has left a great influence on their neutrality.
India is of course more broadly influenced by its strategic calculus concerning China as well, within the dynamics of the Russia-Ukraine war. India aims to maintain a stable relationship with China – not only is it engaged in the Quad that seeks to balance an overbearing Chinese influence in the Indo-Pacific region, but India also concedes that escalation will be detrimental.
The pragmatic nature of India’s foreign policy is evident in the manner it navigates through the complexity inherent in part due to its security interests and strategic interests. Its stance on the (Russia-Ukraine war and Chinese ties are guided by its strategy to preserve autonomy in a multipolar world.

During the Cold War, India chose not to side with either the United States or the Soviet Union. Instead, it stayed neutral and focused on its own path. India’s leader, Jawaharlal Nehru, believed in independence from these big rival countries. This let India keep friendly relations with both sides while pushing for peace worldwide.
India also led the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), which brought together countries from Asia, Africa, and Latin America. They all wanted to stay out of the Cold War’s big divisions and promote neutrality. Even though India didn’t take sides, it had a strong partnership with the Soviet Union. The Soviets helped India economically and militarily, which affected how India developed its defense and economy.
India’s decision during the Cold War let it focus on its own goals and avoid getting pulled into big conflicts between superpowers. It worked on growing its economy and supporting peace internationally. This approach made India an important voice for independence and cooperation around the world at that time.
