b'This episode is a short explainer on a news issue that\\u2019s dominated the day which is prominent voices from outside of India speaking in support of the farmers\\u2019 protests and the Indian government\\u2019s unprecedented response. The whole issue started with tweets by the pop singer Rihanna and the climate activist Greta Thunberg, but has sort of taken on a life of its own with several developments. Ther latest is that the Delhi police has now filed an FIR against Ms Thunberg as part of what it calls an investigation into an international conspiracy. We\\u2019ll give you some of the details of the story but we\\u2019ll also ground it in a larger context, a question that we\\u2019ve asked before on this podcast, non interventionism in international politics.\\nGuest: Suhasini Haidar, Diplomatic Affairs Editor, The Hindu'
