In this very first episode of DW's new podcast "Global Eyes," hosts Isha Bhatia and Kate Brady are exploring India's relations with Russia, while also touching on those with the US and China. India has avoided condemning Russia's invasion in Ukraine in the UN General Assembly.

Energy expert Nandikesh Sivalingam and foreign policy expert Seema Sirohi help to put things in perspective, with surprising results.
