This should be in your core field of interest, I thought, maybe you have not seen it:

@HistoPol oh yes, I have covered this extensively. China and India are part of the triangle with Russia, at the same time China and Russia also have a triangular relationship with the US. The entire group cannot be allies at the same time. India and China have been at war for decades on that border especially Ladakh, where water scarcity plays a large part in their conflict.

Great to hear.
My take is that #China is doing a strategically great job at encircling #India and therefore #India will need a strong new partner (or several)

Either way, ties with long-time ally #Russia (in particular #defense industry will have to be cut.

What do you think?
