Was already trend twd 🇮🇳 cooperating more w/ 🇺🇸 & 🇦🇺🇫🇷🇯🇵; as long as they’re willing, will see more of this. Middle powers:
- bring diff/addl strengths to bear
- allow 🇮🇳 to hedge vs 🇺🇸 uncertainty, diversify its partners
- can be partners in coalitions & IOs 1/3

US won't mind deeper Indian partnerships w/ Aus, Fra, Ger, Jpn, UK, etc -- they're all US allies -- might even encourage it. Partner that does create some problems -- though not a veto -- for US-India rels is Russia.

Better not to see strategic autonomy as a means to an end. If u see it as goal, must be below security, prosperity.
No country has full SA. e.g. Russia helps give India options, but India’s dependence on it in the defense space also constrains India’s SA 3/3
