|March 13, 2026
New Zealand Member of Parliament Stuart Smith on Thursday emphasised the growing strategic importance of India in shaping the future of the Indo-Pacific, describing the bilateral relationship as a "strategic necessity" for New Zealand's economy, security and global engagement.
Delivering a special address on the future of Indo-Pacific trade at the NXT Summit 2026 on Day 1 at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi, Smith said India's rising global influence and economic momentum make it an indispensable partner for New Zealand in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.
Highlighting shifting global supply chains and evolving strategic alignments, Smith said trusted partnerships and economic resilience are becoming more crucial than ever. "India is not simply an emerging power anymore. Its global influence is established and growing," he noted.
