Clarke Posted February 28, 2022 Posted February 28, 2022 tee hee, soft power Many westerners already view India as a semi-fascist of sorts hell bent on stripping minorities of citizenship if not committing genocide. This conflict registers as much on India as the exoplanets on one's binoculars.

India should reduce its dependence on Russia. That's a 20 year project, probably longer. Not a switch. And already in progress tbh...

Serpico Posted February 28, 2022 Posted February 28, 2022 11 minutes ago, sarchasm said: Nowhere to run if China co-opts the western powers who are massively distracted and fearful of Europe's future. It's entirely possible the West and China arrive at a soft G2 world order and carve the world in their respective spheres of influence. If US, after all the open hostility and propping up Taiwan can work with china and join Belt road (that's a very big if. I don't believe it'll happen as USA and china are fighting for same spot as global leader), what would stop India from doing the same? From Chinese perspective, conflict with India is smaller than their conflict with US/Anglosphere. If they're willing to look past that, why would they hold grudge against us. We're already part of BRICS and a major trading partner with China. This is just posturing from China to prove that they're open to work with everyone and not expansionist Clarke 1
someone Posted February 28, 2022 Posted February 28, 2022 It's an easy decision for India. The internal situation guides the external decisions and principles. We have many internal politics and border issues which interests the other P3. Whereas, perhaps Russia & France are those who are not really interested in our internal matters. Thereby, India cannot be seen anti-Russia as it may need its veto power and support. That is the key principle irrespective of whose Indian government it is.

someone Posted February 28, 2022 Posted February 28, 2022 Wow, the everyday technology can be weaponized. Over dependence on western technologies or apps can be dangerous.

You want to be proud of India's soft power assertions, choose yoga or for that matter even godforsaken Bollywood. FP is based on history and deep state actions. Electorate is immaterial in this issue as pointed by others. We have history and excess baggage with Roos and any government (even BJP) maintains that status-quo. Only change I see is GoI and FP changes vis-a-vis Israel in NDA governments (ABV and NaMo) much to the chagrin of libTards and Muslim Intellectuals (aka Mullahs).

You live in EU (or former EU), Read more about the conflict and why India aligns with Russia. It is not because of Modi and not because Fareed Zakaria or some BBC nitwit says.

vayuu1 Posted March 1, 2022 Posted March 1, 2022 Airforce now called in Indian students evacuation,plus Hardeep puri,sindhia,vk singh and rijeju already sent to Ukraine's bordering countries,now c-17 to fly to bring back students.
Lone Wolf Posted March 1, 2022 Posted March 1, 2022 If this had happened after 5-6 years... I think India Russia China must have united & formed a eastern block or something & should have gone full throttle to topple the western world order & try to flip it. It's all happening too soon for Russia & Putin that India China only has moral support to offer. Putin is caught in a tough place now.

putrevus Posted March 1, 2022 Posted March 1, 2022 Modi showed what a coward he is, if you cannot do what is correct and right thing to do then you have no right to be a leader.
