Joe Biden to be next US President
Why in the news-Democrat Joe Biden has been declared the winner of the 2020 US presidential election, defeating Donald Trump, to become the 46th President of the United States.
◆Kamala Harris has also secured her position as the first woman to be the Vice President of the USA.
◆Kamala Harris is also credited to be the first woman of Indian American and African American origin to be a member of the United States Senate.
◆The Electoral College representatives elected by the popular votes will cast their votes to officially elect the new president on the 14th of next month.
◆The new president will thereafter assume office on the 20th of January next year after the inauguration ceremony.

•At least 35 years of age
•Born in the United States
•A resident of the US for the past 14 years
●Customarily, all candidates disclose their intention to run for President one year prior to the election year. The elections are organised by local authorities with the help of their administrators. There is no central body that conducts elections, unlike the Election Commission of India.
Electoral College
◆Voting is done by the voters to elect their electors, who go on to elect the President. Although, it may seem to be a direct election but the election process fro election of the president of USA is an example of indirect election.
◆The electors, elected by the voters choose their President and Vice President. The group of electors thus formed, which directly chooses their President is called the Electoral College.

•3 for Washington D.C.
●After polling is completed, all votes go to a statewide count.
●The USA follows the winner-takes-it-all procedure. In this system, the winner gets all the seats of a state, if he emerges victorious and the margin of victory does not matter. To become the president, a candidate needs to "win" at least 270 electors.

Mirage 2000: Indian Air Force
◆The Mirage 2000 is the French multirole aircraft manufactured by Dassault Aviation in the 1970s as a replacement for the Mirage III of the French Air Force.
◆The Mirage 2000 is the deadliest and most versatile aircraft of the Indian Air Force. It was commissioned in the year 1985 and was given the name ‘Vajra’ which meaning thunderbolt in Sanskrit.
◆The Mirage 2000 is a 4th generation multirole fighter aircraft, which means that the aircraft is capable of performing air to air attack as well as support ground troops. It can also perform as an interceptor to other aircraft.
Features:
●The Mirage was specially designed as a lightweight, highly maneuverable fighter that was being originally being manufactured as an air superiority fighter under the project “Delta 1000”. But due to changes in the role demanded by the French Military it was later made into a multirole fighter.
●It has a speed of 2.3 Mach and has a combat ceiling of 17Kms. It has a climbing speed of 60,000 feet per min & designed for all-weather day & night operations.
●It has delta wings and fly-by-wire control systems.
●It also has air to air refueling technology that makes it possible to remain airborne for a long period of time.
Mirage in India:
◆The first 7 aircraft which India received was named the ‘Battleaxes’, with this India became the first country to use this aircraft.
◆The Indian Air Force used Mirage 2000s during the Kargil war when the made MiG - 21, MiG-23 and MiG - 27 were unable to execute operation due to difficult weather. These were remarkably successful in destroying the enemy trenches and assisted in capturing Tiger Hill.
◆The IAF currently operates 49 Mirage 2000s aircraft that went under maintenance upliftment and equipped it with Advanced Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) system, integrated multi-mode multi-layered radar, a war suite equipped with advanced beyond visual range missile system capability.
Legacy:
◆Mirage is widely used by many countries such as France, Egypt, India, Peru, UAE, Greece, Taiwan, and Brazil.With increasing frequency in maintenance and inception of new aircraft like Rafale, the Vajra is losing its sheen.
◆Nonetheless, the aircraft has time and again proved itself as an excellent performer. The credit goes to the pilots and the support staff as well.

MiG 21 Aircraft: Indian Air Force
◆The MiG- 21 is an interceptor aircraft manufactured by Mikoyan Gurevich in 1959 when Russia was a part of Soviet Union.
◆It is developed primarily to exceed sonic speed (i.e speed of sound) and be an improvement over its predecessors MiG-15, MiG -17 & Mig-19.
◆The MiG-21(also known as ‘Fishbed’) was the first Soviet aircraft that combined the abilities of both an air to air combat fighter aircraft as well as an interceptor aircraft designed to attack enemy aircraft specifically.
◆India which is the largest operator of MiG-21 made its purchase in 1964 and as of 2019, 119 MiG’s are still in service.
The Flying Coffin:
●It is observed that the plane has been plagued with serious maintenance problems. From 1970 to 2013 at least 14 MiG’s have been crashed. These crashes are not only due to engine problem but also due to weather conditions.
●The Indian Air Force due to lack of budgetary cuts is not able to purchase newer aircraft and has to make do with refitting new technology in an older machine. Due to these crashes, the plane has earned the name ‘Flying Coffin’ and ‘widowmaker’.
MIG 21 Design:
◆The aircraft has a delta wing which permits it to take turns without any rapid loss of speed. It has an operational range of 1210 Km, Flying speed of Mach 2 (2175 Km/h) and a surface ceiling of 17.8 Kms which makes it one of the best aircraft in its 3rd generation league.
MIG 21 Aircraft Upgrades:
●The MiG 21 also went under significant up gradation in 2006 with Multi-mode Radar, Better avionics & communication systems to give an edge over other aircraft.
●It was then renamed ‘MiG -21 Bison’. It was also fitted with R-73 Archer short range and R-77 medium-range anti-aircraft missile. It was also equipped with Helmet mounted displays which assisted the pilot while engaging in a dogfight(Aerial battle between fighter aircraft conducted at close range)

Trump and India
◆For India, the Trump years have offered a mixture of spectacle and substance. President Trump did what no US leader had ever done before – shared a stage with Prime Minister Modi at rallies attended by tens of thousands of people in the US and India.
◆While the rallies formed the public face of the relationship, defence planners and diplomats have worked behind the scenes to deepen security cooperation between the world’s two largest democracies.
◆The Trump administration has though continued with the policies of its predecessors. The US views India as a useful counterweight to China, together with traditional allies in the region such as Australia and Japan.
◆Under Trump’s watch, the focus has been primarily on the security arena with two issues accorded foremost importance; weapons sales, and prodding India to serve as a counterweight to China.
◆Their bonhomie resulted in first-ever 2+2 dialogue between both the countries at defence and foreign ministry levels.
◆Trump’s relationships are almost wholly transactional. The Indian government has found plenty to like about the Trump administration, including its emphasis on fighting Islamist extremism and its tough stance on Pakistan.
◆Unlike many international and national voices, Trump has had little to say about Modi’s controversial moves over the past year, including abrogation of Article 370 and 35A, the crackdown in Valley, CAA and NPR.
◆In fact, Modi’s embrace of Trump has been so enthusiastic that it risks undermining the strong bipartisan consensus for better relations with India, which many interpreted as an implicit endorsement of Trump’s election campaign.
◆Obviously, Trump wants to make significant inroads with Indian-American voters, but politically and diplomatically for I it’s important to keep it bipartisan.
◆The only area of significant friction between Modi and Trump has been on trade practices, which Trump terms as unfair and has often tweeted vehemently against, and his immigration policies.
◆The two countries are almost engaged in a low-grade trade war. However, Trump’s victory cannot be to India’s disadvantage.

Jo Biden and India
●Biden has been an enthusiastic proponent of US-India ties for years. As far back as 2006, as a Senator, he stated to an interviewer, “My dream is that in 2020 the two closest nations in the world will be India and the United States. If that occurs, the world will be safer.”
●Biden, once Chairman of the powerful Senate foreign relations committee, is an established friend of India and has been instrumental in removing the sanctions on India post-Pokhran 2 nuclear tests while insisting on retaining curbs on Pakistan. He was also a major force behind the US-India Nuclear Deal (the 123 Agreement).
●Some sections in India seem convinced that a Biden’s Presidency bodes ill for India. Their misgivings, it appears, stem from some adverse comments that both Biden and his running mate, Senator Kamala Harris have made about the state of human rights in J&K, nationalist agenda (Hindu in their perception), CAA and NCR which seek to move the country away from its secular founding ideals, India’s long tradition of secularism and sustaining a multiethnic and multi-religious democracy.
●Biden’s win will mean multi-faceted, potentially more favourable relationship especially in trade policies for India, predicts UBS Global Research.
●His approach will be more predictable and stable, suiting our diplomatic, political and bureaucratic culture. He would involve India in US withdrawal from Afghanistan to ensure regional stability rather than implement it unilaterally.
●Biden is, also expected to have a technocrat dominated administration. Specialists will be back and so will old recognised practices. State-level ties will be more predictable, and India’s importance as a strategic counter to China in the Indo-Pacific will be re-affirmed.
●The flip side is that the benefits of change may be limited for India, as Biden may try and roll back tensions with China even if the ties remain prickly. Washington may learn to live with China’s expanded influence in Asia, which could moderate and reduce support to India against Beijing’s penchant for salami slicing.
●Pakistan, India’s implacable foe, will continue to be important to the US owing to the endgame in Afghanistan. Being moderates, they may feel compelled to voice dissenting notes against PM Modi’s brand of nationalism and perceived ‘Hindutva’ card. However, geo-strategic interests, India’s size and the market could trump ethical considerations.

Chabahar Project
Why in News-Recently, Iran’s Port and Maritime Organisation (PMO) has conveyed to India a request for locomotives and signalling equipment for the Chabahar-Zahedan railway line.
◆Iran has been facing difficulty in procuring them directly due to the sanctions imposed by the USA.
◆Iran has also asked India to activate the USD 150 million credit line which was offered to it by India during the Iranian President's visit in 2018.
Background:
●In May 2016, India, Iran and Afghanistan signed the trilateral agreement which entailed the establishment of Transit and Transport Corridor among them using Chabahar port in Iran as one of the regional hubs for sea transportation.
●Construction of a rail line from Chabahar port to Zahedan, along the border with Afghanistan as an alternate trade route to Afghanistan and Central Asia, was also a part of it.
●The state-owned Indian Railways Construction Ltd. (IRCON) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Iranian Rail Ministry to provide all services, superstructure work and financing (around USD 1.6 billion).
Reasons for Excluding India:
Iran’s Stand:
◆In July 2020, Iran decided to proceed with the rail line construction on its own, citing delays from the Indian side in beginning and funding the project.
India’s Stand:
◆IRCON completed the site inspection and feasibility report, and had been waiting for the Iranian side to appoint a nodal authority.
◆Although the project has secured a special waiver from the USA, India is hesitant to deal with the construction company which has links with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and is under the sanctions.
◆The IRGC is a hard-line force which operates its own military infrastructure in parallel to Iran’s regular armed forces. In April 2020, it launched Iran’s first military satellite Noor.
◆Fear of sanctions by the USA has also impacted Indian interest in the Farzad-B gas field project of Iran.

Chabahar Project
Why in News-Recently, Iran’s Port and Maritime Organisation (PMO) has conveyed to India a request for locomotives and signalling equipment for the Chabahar-Zahedan railway line.
◆Iran has been facing difficulty in procuring them directly due to the sanctions imposed by the USA.
◆Iran has also asked India to activate the USD 150 million credit line which was offered to it by India during the Iranian President's visit in 2018.
Background:
●In May 2016, India, Iran and Afghanistan signed the trilateral agreement which entailed the establishment of Transit and Transport Corridor among them using Chabahar port in Iran as one of the regional hubs for sea transportation.
●Construction of a rail line from Chabahar port to Zahedan, along the border with Afghanistan as an alternate trade route to Afghanistan and Central Asia, was also a part of it.
●The state-owned Indian Railways Construction Ltd. (IRCON) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Iranian Rail Ministry to provide all services, superstructure work and financing (around USD 1.6 billion).
Reasons for Excluding India:
Iran’s Stand:
◆In July 2020, Iran decided to proceed with the rail line construction on its own, citing delays from the Indian side in beginning and funding the project.
India’s Stand:
◆IRCON completed the site inspection and feasibility report, and had been waiting for the Iranian side to appoint a nodal authority.
◆Although the project has secured a special waiver from the USA, India is hesitant to deal with the construction company which has links with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and is under the sanctions.
◆The IRGC is a hard-line force which operates its own military infrastructure in parallel to Iran’s regular armed forces. In April 2020, it launched Iran’s first military satellite Noor.
◆Fear of sanctions by the USA has also impacted Indian interest in the Farzad-B gas field project of Iran.

Q. What is the significance of Chabahar Port for India ?
A.
Trade: It is being considered a gateway to golden opportunities for trade by the three countries with other Central Asian countries in the wake of Pakistan denying transit access to India.
Security: China is aggressively pursuing its own Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) under the One Belt One Road (OBOR) project. The port can also act as a counter to Pakistan’s Gwadar Port, which is being developed with Chinese investment.
Connectivity: In future, the Chabahar project and the International North South Transport Corridor (INSTC) will complement each other by optimising Indian connectivity with Russia and Eurasia.
