How are we to judge the invitation to be the guest of honour at the recent plenary of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Council of Foreign Ministers (CFM) summit, held in Abu Dhabi on 1-2 March?

What the OIC says and does, matters little. But in today’s information age, its positions shape perceptions, which, in turn, influence policy. So, we got an invite that we have thirsted for since we were ignominiously from the OIC’s Rabat Summit in 1969, there were no critical references to India in the Abu Dhabi Declaration, but it passed a separate resolution criticising India. And Pakistan boycotted the meet because of the Indian invite.

It’s not quite the unalloyed triumph for India as is being made out in official circles, but it is an important development with portents for the future.
