In a lighthearted moment, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar demonstrated his diplomatic wit when asked a rather unusual question. If given a choice, who would he prefer to have dinner with – North Korean leader Kim Jong Un or businessman George Soros?
Instead of selecting one of the two controversial figures, the minister defused the situation with a touch of humor. He replied with a smile, drawing cheers and applause from the crowd, “I think it is Navratri, I am fasting.”
Jaishankar’s clever reply avoided the diplomatic minefield of choosing between two highly polarising personalities.
