Letters to The Editor — July 28, 2025
The world and Gaza It is unfortunate that the world does not seem to be moved by the fact that people of Gaza are facing acute starvation as a result of a genocidal war. Words such as 'humanity', 'conscience', 'empathy' and 'altruism' ring hollow in the context of collective global inaction. Aid airdrops without lifting the ground blockade of aid deliveries are only an eyewash and do not reverse the deepening crisis. The lack of disquiet is a reflection of the times we live in. G. David Milton, Maruthancode, Tamil Nadu Donald Trump's record Donald Trump's yearning for the Nobel Peace Prize is no secret. Yet, his record speaks more of ambition than achievement. In Ukraine, he hints at ending the war 'in 24 hours', but neither Kyiv nor Moscow trusts his intentions. In Gaza, his stance is even less persuasive — offering little beyond hollow statements, while giving Israel a carte blanche. His 'credit' for an India-Pakistan détente lacks conviction, repeated more out of habit than belief. Frustrated, Mr. Trump turns to Africa and Southeast Asia to tout his role in conflict de-escalation, but even these claims lack depth. And no less is his singular pursuit to be reckoned as a pioneer in dismantling the global economic order. R. Narayanan, Navi Mumbai Sharp contrast The narrative in the article, 'On a tight leash in Mumbai' (Magazine – 'Openpage', July 27), evoked no surprise, as the stray dog menace exists across India. Last year I had been to Tennessee, in the U.S. to visit my son. There are no street dogs there but only pet dogs. When they are taken out for a walk there is a proper leash. The owner has to pick up waste with a scoop, which is then transferred to a cover and placed in a waste bin that is marked for such waste. A lot is to be learnt from foreign countries. D. Sethuraman, Chennai
