[🇮🇳] Modi Can’t Afford to Cut Ties with Trump

[Vsdoc]

Modi is a shrewd politician. He will keep balance and play the card accordingly. In some time, you will see him meeting Trump with same enthusiasm as he used to meet him before.

Then he is a bigger chtya than I gave him credit for being.

your whole:

'hum karein to chamatkar, aap karein toh...' line is getting stale, Doc.

La Dinastia frontman MMS ki deal wahwah-kari le layak.

but Modi ka pivot, very bad very bad ?

typical chamchhuddin behavior, this.

India was brought into the SCO by Russia. After being severely humiliated by the US, Modi tried to seek support in the SCO. But I think China may just want to play tricks with India.

The main reasons are as follows:

After being humiliated by the US, India was forced to seek support from the SCO. It lacks credibility and sincerity.

India's international policy is wavering. It lacks credibility. Once the US gives India a bone, India will immediately betray the SCO.

India lacks strength and international status. It cannot help SCO, but it needs SCO's help.

But would you help someone who could betray you at any time?

Yes I am afraid your assessment is correct.

Modi lacks the backbone/principle of Indian politicians and leaders who preceded him and who were very instrumental in the non-aligned movement and other fora.

With Modi (and also his party stalwarts who are fickle and in my opinion not as astute in int'l political gamesmanship) he has lost his int'l credibility and trust.

But Modi has no option other than run to the SCO. With Trump and US his relationship is irreversibly damaged. He will take anything he can get.

In the future the other shoe will drop from the US, meaning

a) US sanctions for India buying/using Russian crude (by Modi's friend and financier Adani, who operates the sanctioned oil refineries), and

b) US sanctions for India joining BRIC and the effort for de-dollarization.

There may be additional sanctions on India for joining the SCO.

India and Modi are softer targets as seen by the US/Trump (no leverage), hence the tougher treatment than Russia or China.

Does your credit or discredit count?

You cannot (like we say in Bengali) "put two legs in two boats". The height of stupidity.

This is not how you earn trust in this world. People will see you and the country you lead - as untrustworthy.

Pick a side (which suits you best), and keep it that way.

You should have advised this to your politicians who talks on balancing of relationship with India and China all the time. Our foreign policy had done exceedingly well in Modi's time.

Lots of contradiction in your post. First you said that Modi has no backbone and than you discuss sanctions on India by US on tariff issue. How can both be true at the same times?

World has seen Modi's backbone multiple times, whether it's in dealing with US in the matter of CATSA, importing oil from Iran, buying S400 from Russia, oil import from Russia, humiliating China on LAC in Chumar, Doklam and Galwan or Bringing China's puppy Pakistan on its knees in less than 4 days. He has set new benchmark of foreign policy. That is the reason you guys try your best to demonize him out of envy.
