The U. S is not dependable, has betrayed it's friends. Russia, one knows is rigid in its policies. We just have to maintain a relationship that is cordial

and also discreet. Very well analyzed and written, as always. One hopes that

Russia comes to our aid in any conflicts with China or / Pak. in the future.

india has to do this: pursue enlightened self-interest. stand on its own, don't depend on anybody else. this is not non-alignment, it is planning to be one of the poles others coalesce around.

Rajeev ji, well written and informative article. History tells us that any interest in Bharatam in the past was to take something away from us. It supplied soldiers for the world wars( european wars), UN missions elsewhere with meagre or no reparations. Clearly US doesn't want to lose infantry and Europe is used to enjoyment of colonial loot. In the mind on Atlantists Bharatam is overpopulated and should be delighted to lay down lives for the sake of superior societies.

If we do send our soldiers, there will be no back up, we will be stuck and it will ruin the economy. Kill 2 birds with a single stone. Depopulate and destroy economy, leading to breaking of the country.

thanks deepa. they view india as a colony still, one that can be shamed or bullied into submission. this is because indians have an inferiority complex regarding whites. chinese don't have the same problem, because they think they are superior to everybody else. yes, depopulation of blacks and browns is possibly on the agenda.
