Public sentiment around India's relationships with Russia and China is generally positive, driven by frustration with U.S. policies and a recognition of the need for strategic alliances. Many see potential for enhanced cooperation within BRICS, but skepticism remains particularly regarding China due to historical tensions. There’s a collective desire for India to assert its sovereignty and chart an independent path amidst global pressures.

This sub is delusional...No such effort is on, not unless Xi has taken the initiative and they have no interest as such...

Said that, IMO India is better off holding its ground than bending backwards to appease this orange bafoon...

If anyone has any doubts, read the deal with EU, Or with SK or with Japan..
Completely, one sided, better not call it as Trade Deal, but more of extortion! SomethingUkrainian knows well off for the mineral deal..

Cost for India to Pay? Low to mederate! India is more of domestic driven economy then export driven!

Cost for US? Kiss good bye to QUAD! Virtual shutoff to Asia.. China will continue to grow and outpace US and will rule Asia, with no actual counter balance.

Orange Bafoon just reenforced long held believe in India, US is never a friend or Ally or to be trusted!
And they have survived Hostile US for many years and will continue to do so

No they aren't. This sub is so silly it's just one unsourced claim after another where if you dig into it, no one important actually claimed the thing in the title.

Why wouldn’t they? Some people in the world actually still have balls and will not just bend over…..🤷‍♂️

Every country does what in its own interest. India and China historically have not had good relations and the same goes between China and Russia. 

Expect numerous flip flops on international policy in the years to come. The last 40 years was an anomaly. Globalization was an illusion.

Willsmiff1985

I don't know why China and India couldn't come to an agreement on their border dispute. Aksai Chin is basically a wasteland, while Arunachal Pradesh is arguably the more resource-rich area. India let China have Aksai Chin and China let India have Arunachal Pradesh, problem solved. Or India let China kept 10-20 miles West of the G219 road while India keeps everything west of it with Arunachal Pradesh. Honestly China and India will be stronger and more prosperous as friends than as foes, and the whole border dispute is pretty stupid.

Meanwhile, China continues to steal Indian land.  And has set up a garrote of naval bases to surround India.

It's cute really it is.  India knows full well that China has plans on carving India up like a Christmas goose.

Unable-University258

They always where, wtf are people this suprised, the hate between india and china is not that big, and when putin kicks the bucket and china gets full control of russia , then india will have to make peace with them....

Both russia and india know their future, they embraced it, mostly because politicians dont give a shit about their own country.

Manfaceless

Are you guys still trying to propagate this rumor? China and India will never form an alliance.

Chuckobofish123

They will not? India, China and Russia has no resources worth anything.  
  
You guys from India are delusional. Like WTAF?

Russia are scum? Nihilists. Even the thought of working with them should be enough to ban every single Indian citizen from the west.

Feltzinclasp5

I do not understand US politics at all. One would think they’d support India and try to increase ties and relations with a democratic country, a country that can to an extent oppose China in Asia, a country that is a member of the QUAd and had been increasingly west leaning in the past decade a county that is on good terms with a huge number of SEA countries and can provide logistics and security in the Indian Ocean and even as far as the Gulf of Aden. 

India has been the only BRICS country that has stated that they do not support de dollarisation. 

Instead we have a US that allies itself with Pakistan, imposes tariffs on India and just ruined relations with India to an extent where the public will remember this for decades to come. 

US just made India rethink its west leaning policy, Indian public and the current government were finally leaning west and wanted increased ties and security exchnage. 

But now expect India to backtrack and reassess, Russia has been a long time partner who has pulled through in times of need, ties with China will improve henceforth. It’s time to reassess Indian foreign policy and I hope we don’t make an enemy out of China and Russia for the sake of the US and the west who have proved themselves time and again to be unreliable.

If India and China become allies that has huge implications for world. And even if it’s because of Trump pushing them into a corner, I will happily endorse Trump for that noble prize he so wants.

Trump and world media may not realise this but Indian media has become very open and accommodative to China now. This the first step towards building relationship as per the direction of Government

Sure but India and China have too many territorial, cultural and economic disputes for any meaningful "alliance" to form. We all know about China and Russia relations so no progress there either.

In part trump put pressure on India because of Russian oil. India buys about 40% of Russian crude and china takes 48%. Trump can’t tariff china more as America buys rare earths from china

Aqui10

So much for the plan of containing China.

His supporters already had to justify his soft stance on Russia in the beginning of his term by saying China is a much bigger threat than Russia. Okay fine whatever, but India ? What would be their reason now ?

ImperiumRome

Well before the tariffs, when the US cozied up to Pakistan AGAIN, the seeds of mistrust had been laid. 

Honestly as a third party observer, when you see Ukraine head of state being insulted in front of the world to see, and then NATO partners and allies like South Korea and Japan being hamstrung with all these investments that need to be made in return for protection, how is this not seen as extortion. 

I agree that NATO partners except Poland need to pull their weight in terms of investment (min 3% of their GDPs) but sheesh this is literally the quickest way to lose friends, allies.

hinterstoisser

why would India do America’s bidding against china? what did canada n japan n australia got for being america,s pets or allies? same treatment as foe

East_Professional999

The US and India are the world's two biggest democracies - in population, purchasing power and military strength. It makes us natural allies. India would have liked to have a strategic partnership with the US and be a counterweight to China. It has taken 25 years of diplomacy to get a bi-partisan consensus (in both countries) on the importance of the India-US relationship.

Trump has undone all that with his misinformed and inappropriate tweets. He publicly insulted the leader of Ukraine. His tweets insult all Indians, irrespective of their political persuasion.

It is easier for India to reach an understanding with China, than it is to figure out what Trump wants and what he will tweet next.

Military cooperation with the US is an obvious way to counter China. However when we bought S-400 missiles from Russia (the US offered us no alternative) we were threatened with sanctions - which will be a reality with spares for every item of US equipment we buy. We ordered aircraft engines in 2021. The first two just arrived. We created our own satellite based GPS system, because the US denied us the tech.

We should be sharing intel on terrorist camps in Pakistan and Afghanistan (which have targeted the US, as much as India) but we have Trump welcoming the Pak army chief to the White house - not the elected Prime  minister, after the army chief appeared at a state funeral for US and UN proscribed terrorists and reiterated he will continue to support them. We should be sharing intel on the acoustic signatures of Chinese subs. Instead we are denied submarine tech - whereas Russia leased us nuclear submarines, to train our crews, until our own nuclear subs were ready to be deployed. We are eyeball to eyeball with the Chinese across our disputed Himalayan border. I would have assumed the US would have liked to have people embedded with our army units, to observe the latest Chinese hardware in field conditions. Instead we are tariffed at a higher rate than China.

While we have an adversarial relationship with China and impose higher tariffs than we do on the US, the Chinese still export three times more to India ($120 billion a year) than the US. They do that although entire sectors of our economy are closed to the Chinese, but not the US.

Submission Statement:

I think the last para really captures the significance of the substance of the article:

"A war of words and tariffs is different, of course. But Indian and American cooperation around China is no longer something that anyone can count on."

Top-Flatworm8201

The issue with emotional and short sighted leadership is that countries are usually thinking in decades, not in short term media cycles. India is important for a variety of reasons but trump is willing to risk it all for very little gain. Russia and China must be soooo happy with trumps decision making.

Critical-Ostrich-397

Reddit has an extreme hate of China so this is disappointing for those who want to see the while world come together to stop the chinese for doing whatever it is they are doing, when in reality this is just an American thuclycides trap phenomenon. But it was clear from this very dynamic that India would inevitably fall to the same level once it reached a sufficiently large economy relative to the Us and while it is not apparent becsuse thr ppp/nominal ratio of India is very very large, India is significantly bigger than what Japan or China were relative to the US economy when the US became paranoid about either of them, the US India relations were always destined to become rotten

ale_93113

India was never the America's counterweight though. India has their own stuff with China - true, but they were never exactly on the same side as the US.

China stuff is a common interest, but then there is Russia, Pakistan - there the US and India differ significantly.

oritfx

India as the counterweight to China? If anything, it’s the other way around, India’s counter to China was the U.S.

SluggoRuns

That is both complicated and simple. An oversimplified answer is "India fails to deliver". India did not; India lost several jet fighters in the battle while PAF lost none mid-air. The result is disasterous.

However, if we closely look what happened: IAF has successfully planned and carried out the air raid with over seventy jet fighters from multiple squadrons on several fronts. The hard truth is, PAF got its upper hand in the aerial skirmish with superior BVRAAMs from China.

But Trump cannot publicly admit that China has any kind of military edge over US or NATO; otherwise, it would put the whole NATO in an awkward place; all their confidence in power superiority will begin to collapse. So yeah, Trump would have to blame India and try to hold India accountable. Modi won't buy that; he needs support from India's armed forces to consolidate his power, and it is indeed, not IAF's fault.

Both parties try to force the other side to admit something which is one step away from political suicide, no wonder the talk collapsed.

Would be interesting if india invites Russia for 5th gen Amca program as a partner 

WinterPresentation4

SS: New Delhi/Moscow: India and Russia on Tuesday reaffirmed their long-standing commitment to deepen bilateral defence cooperation, sending a clear message of strategic alignment even as geopolitical tensions and Western pressure mount over India's continued oil trade with Moscow.

The renewed push came during a high-level meeting between Indian Ambassador to Russia, Vinay Kumar, and Russian Deputy Defence Minister Colonel-General Alexander Fomin, who oversees international military partnerships.

The meeting comes at a critical juncture, as US President Donald Trump has recently warned of “harsh sanctions” against India for continuing to import discounted Russian crude — a move that Washington says undermines its efforts to isolate Moscow economically. However, both New Delhi and Moscow appear unshaken in their resolve.

Mundane-Laugh8562

Well, that's not very surprising. in 4 years, Trump will be either gone, or the US well on its way to geoplitical irrelevance.

But don't read too much into this. They are just talking. The first step in such talks is always to reaffirm that they want to talk, that everything is peachy and they love each other. Whether anything comes out of this depends on what the individual countries want to get and want to give. Depending on that, this might be anything between just a "we like each other but we couldn't agree to any collaboration" and a "we are merging our armies". With the former being much more likely than the latter.

This was something very obvious and was always going to happen. Would be fun to see how Trump defends this.

He probably gonna sweeten up the trade deal for India but give a speech that India bowed and agreed to his terms so he is removing tarrifs.

man i can bet Trump is Chinese.. he is helping China more than Xi Xinping

India and China have border disputes plus China is basically the only reason Pakistan exists as a country atm. Any long term strategic partnership between India and China is infeasible and non existent.

They don't even have to really launch it, just say we will introduce that next year.

Usa is more important then china to us. We have deep border issues with china but we have to engage anyway with both of them. National interest should be supreme.
We have trade surplus with usa and deficit with china.

This is a joke of an Idea. Indias only ally now is athmanirbharta! India has no choice but to accelerate its manufacturing, tech and defense sectors. India is living under an external choke hold of these countries and internal chokehold of babus and corruption.
