America knows this… they are gonna try and Ukrainify India against China by allowing them some incentives in the world system and hyping them up.
Personally, I don’t think there’s any realistic chance of that happening in practice. India is not Ukraine, and they see themselves as a world power as opposed to a vassal of the US. In fact, we can already see increasing tensions between the US and India as a result in divergence of policy towards Russia. I do think the US will continue to try to put pressure on India and that will simply result in India further distancing itself from the west. I also expect that China and India will be able to work their issues out in the end because their disputes aren’t really existential.
Oh yes, I agree. I just said try, not succeed.
