To some, Sunak's appointment is just the latest in a series of events to highlight the contrasting fortunes of a rising India and the recent economic woes of Britain, its former colonial ruler. In the wake of Britain's exit from the European Union, London has repeatedly looked to its former colony for a boost; wooing it in search of a free trade deal and granting more visas to Indian nationals than any other country. And now, just weeks after the United Kingdom ceded to India its title of the world's fifth largest economy, it is former finance minister Sunak that London is turning to in the hope of repairing the economic carnage wrought by the policies of his short-lived predecessor, Liz Truss, which roiled markets and crashed the pound.
