Refer to, “Russia and China have opposed the sanctions, and are likely to discuss this at the upcoming SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organization) summit with Prime Minister Narendra Modi.”
It is clear from the above lines that Russia and China have decided to support Iran on the issue since they are not with the USA regarding this. The Presidents of both the countries are going to meet India PM Narendra Modi also on the sidelines of the SCO Summit so that he can also be convinced accordingly.
Among the given options, if we need to find out the correct pick, our answer is Option E since it correctly points out the fact Russia and China are against any kind of sanction on Iran by the USA. Other options can be eliminated from consideration since they do not follow from the passage.
This makes Option E the correct choice among the given options.

Refer to, “United States President Donald Trump’s announcement that Washington will withdraw the GSP (Generalized System of Preferences) trade status given to India 30 years ago came hours after former diplomat S. Jaishankar assumed office as External Affairs Minister,”
So, Statement A is correct that USA has recently withdrawn the GSP status granted to India and also Statement B is correct for the fact that it was granted more than 30 years ago. Regarding Statement C, there is no such reference that no other country in the world was granted the status except India. Hence it cannot be considered as correct based on the information given in the passage.
This makes Option C the correct choice among the given options.

Refer to, “Mr. Shanahan’s warnings followed a stark message from Mr. Pompeo, who said during a visit to Germany on Friday that the U.S. may cut intelligence sharing with countries that choose telecom companies the U.S. doesn’t trust.”

Among the given options, Option E correctly explains this fact whereas the other options are completely out of context here thereby making them eligible for elimination.
This makes Option E the correct choice among the given options.

It is very much clear from the passage that Indian External Affairs Minister will have his task cut out to manage the relationship of the country with USA and navigate the country through its rivalry with Russia and China. There is no reference to Bulgaria in the passage.
