A classic case of do nothing and win for China
I mean if you don't want India to buy Russian oil and therefore indirectly contribute to Russian war effort the solution is staring right in your face: just sell American oil to India at whatever price Russians are doing, undercut the Russians.
But no you don't want to do it because you're cheap and/or unable to foot the bill to play at the cold war 2.0 table, so now not only is Ukraine going to lose you're going to end up getting in a trade war with India also. Didn't put your money where your mouth is, now you're going to suffer a case of 赔了夫人又折兵.
Back during the cold war the way it worked is 小弟 have to actually do some work and pay a blood price to earn their united front value and 老大哥 actually paid up that united front value with real things like technology transfer or resources. These days you get these crazy politicians who don't know geopolitics trying to be 小弟 by pretending to do work and others pretending to be 老大哥 without paying anything.

It's hard for me to judge what he has experienced. However, he did one thing better than other illegal immigrants, which was not to bring his family members to suffer unnecessary hardships.
It's hard to say what exactly happened to him. Perhaps he really encountered unfair treatment (perhaps his house was forcibly demolished by "black gloves" during the real estate development boom), or perhaps he was simply dissatisfied with the amount of compensation.
The worst case scenario is that he believes in the utopian "American Dream" fabricated by those pro-Westerners (many of whom have never even traveled abroad).
India is not an US ally, at least not since what is now India was under British rule.
Anyone who believes India to be an American ally is either misinformed, or actively spreading disinformation, as in the case of Nimarata "Nikki" Haley (nee Randhawa):
There's a reason why disloyal Nikki was not offered a role in the second Trump administration.
Depending on how mouthy Haley gets, there's a chance President Trump will direct the FBI and DoJ to dig into her for FARA or Hatch Act violations, or maybe something else altogether.
Pretty sure most software developers in the U.S. consider India the adversary Nikki…
Look on the "bright side," comrade:
Needless to say, these $9/hr coders certainly represented some of the !
Not to denigrate , but our Bharati bhais have thus far done an excellent job validating the old adage: "you get what you pay for!"

I've only been flying Airbus ever since the first Boeing crash made headlines years ago. It's probably only a matter of time before Airbus uses Indian software too though.Look on the "bright side," comrade:

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit China to attend the regional summit SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organisation) in Tianjin city from August 31 to September 1
Wow. September is really shaping up to be quite an event, with China's military parade coming up.
Imagine if Trump actually went for the parade as well

I really don't get the hype. Its just a variant of the Russian P-800 Oniks which is already an outdated design. Russia uses much newer stuff in Ukraine now. The way Jai Hinds talk is as if this thing came from Shiva himself or something.You forgot the ultimate weapon......BRAHMOS!!!
Waste of time. The time to mend ties was months to even years ago. Now things are getting tough, you can't suddenly decide to start making some effort only now. Almost everything China does was planned years in advance.
