Lol. So, no change in India's stance wrt #Russian #Ukraine #war afterall🤔

ps:
Both #India & #UAE didn't condemn Russia. They condemned civilian killings in #Bucha and called for independent investigation meaning they don't want to jump into conclusions during the "fog of war".

⚡So, India isn't happy with the indifferent attitude of some Ukriane institutions! 🤔

ps:
Yesterday some Indian Members of Parliament raised the issue of harsh treatment meted out to Indians by Ukrianian army (by some neonazis). Govt. brushed off those!

It seems we've taken a stance - A MULTIPOLAR WORLD.😁

⚡Clear statement that Rupee-Ruble is a go.

I repeat 'RUPEE-RUBLE IS A GO'.

Brace for Sanctions (soft/hard)!

My hunch:🤔
USA's 🇵🇰 tilt,
Biden-China backdoor deal,
EU-China summit during same day when 🇷🇺 FM visited 🇮🇳

As and when French elections would be over, India, Russia, France, Arab states (excluding Qatar) and others would frame a multipolar order, it seems.🤔

Reasons:
US change of stance wrt QUAD (AUKUS), Indo-Pacific to Asia-Pacific, NATO expansion to Asia!

'Atmanirbhar Bharat' implies plurilateralism & not mulitlateraliam will be the norm.

So, India will develop capabilities on its own aka self reliance albeit with help from like-minded nations like France, Russia, Arabs.🤔

Observe the statement "political agenda game of west" used by EAM S. Jai Shankar. Also note that India didn't condemn Russia but condemned civilian killings in Bucha.

So, it seems our Intel community found something fishy wrt the Russia-Ukraine war.🤔

It seems, the more US pressurises India (public statements denigrating India's stance, Pakistan card, China card, CAATSA Sanctions etc.,), the more India asserts its autonomy.😅

Being Hostile is futile.🤦🏻

Despite targeted media campaigns against India & possibility of secondary sanctions, it seems India's position is pretty clear - 'We don't want to cut our ties with Russia'.

Bonhomie during the All-Party meet & parliament discussions point to this. 🤔
