Help your main adversary because a clown once pissed you off?
There is really no such thing as irreversible damage. America committed an unforced error. You're asking China to return the favor.
We can be temporary allies, just as China is playing it now.
Why do we want to make Taco Don happy?? Sorry, why do YOU want to make Taco Don happy??
I don't even think it happened. I recall there were Indian rumors about China letting up on rare earth restrictions to India and China confirmed they have never heard of it.
Nobody sells their top weapons. That is a national security issue. China wouldn't sell our best to Russia and I wouldn't expect them to do that for us. I also don't even think the report is true that China made the request because we have a very robust sub program of our own.
You don't trust Russia because they didn't pledge to have endless trade growth with China? Trade increases and decreases work both ways.
Are there safety issues? Why focus on one thing? Just because China helped Russia doesn't mean Russia loses control of its market to China. And Russia helped China a lot too, just by fighting in Ukraine and keeping the West busy and tired.
Does anyone buy the Indian one?? What is the point?
There is no such thing as fair. A country can ban something from one country; it doesn't mean it needs to ban that item from all countries and it doesn't mean that its overall trade with that country is banned.
Because the number they sell isn't worth a penstroke.
Why do you focus on one thing to define a relationship when there are tens of thousands of transactions between the countries? When some Chinese banks dropped cross-border transactions to Russia but not India, did we treat them like the enemy first?? By your definition, we sure did.
I think China should support Russia as best it can while Russia's fighting and bleeding to keep the West off of us. You want to pressure Russia? What if Russia ends the war and forges an alliance with Trump? And you had the bright idea to kick India back to America again. So then we have Russia, EU, India, USA at peace and alligned against China, you genius diplomat, you. But no. This is the real world, not a dumb and dumber remake featuring Trump and you.

Before Brexit. Brits were accusing Eastern Europeans of stealing their jobs. Years after Brexit, they are now doing the same thing to South Asians.
Meanwhile people like Nigel Farage, the original cheerleader for Brexit had been busy talking about deporting immigrant. 10 years ago, he was praising Indian and Australian immigrants as better than Eastern Europeans.

Mercenaries learn UAV flying in Ukr, then return to home countries to apply tactics in cartels on law enforcement
I don't know about other countries but in Canada, most immigrants value higher education for themselves and their children, even the poorest migrant, whereas most of the local whites aim for just high-school diplomas or community colleges for blue collar jobs and then complain that immigrants took all their jobs.
But I reckon India is dumb enough to fumble again on their end. They will never trust China as long as the Pak-China alliance exists, and those delusional superpower ambitions are a very core element of the Modi crowd.
Immigrants and minorities are always the scapegoat in Western countries when a major issue arises in society. Before Indians, it was Muslims, and before that, Jews, gypsies, Chinese, blacks, Latinos, Albanians, ... . The real problem is, the locals are incompetent.

China should give India rope (not to hang itself, but) to stay inline with BRICS instead of obstructing it by aligning itself with the anti-BRICS crew. Make them dependent on BRICS (and China) and use that as leverage to prevent them from flexing it's superpower ambition muscle. India's divorce from the US is a great start.

With respect to India, China's policy should be consistent and not subject to constant changes in rhetoric's from India or US.
China should definitely seek good relation with India, be polite and respectful, say all the nice things to Indians...etc.
In practice, China must ensure a few things moving forward:
1, Minimal investment into India's industrial sector from the private sector, ban it if they have to.
2, Zero technological/knowhow transfer from China to India.
3, Export of high-tech manufacturing equipment's should be granted case by case, only those that has foreign competitions available should be allowed to be exported.
Those should be the bottom line of China's policy to India. Now that Trump fucked up US-India relation, what should China do? Say more nice things to India I guess, in practicality nothing else changes
Would these commentators just shut up!
They got dumped. That is basically the story. And they cannot take it!
All this free advice of why they should get back together again, is so pathetic. It will not work!
Maybe when they get someone who is president who is different, then maybe try again.
To do so now, is like trying to manipulate the situation behind Trump's back, but all in the open. That will create a lot of resentment.
Best to do, is just shut up!
You got dumped.
That means, you got dumped!
The Americans have a saying, stand behind the president. That is what they do in their armed forces.
To listen to this whining from someone who got dumped, is nauseating!
It is pretty clear from this episode, the Americans and Indians do not share the same values.
American democracy is radically different from Indian democracy.
Political systems, do influence cultural mores and modes of behaviour.
They got dumped, cannot accepted, feverishly working in full view behind the scenes to get back together again.
Logically, the only way that can happen getting America and India back together again is to get rid of Trump.
This is hard to believe what we are seeing.
While I don't have anything against India, they're coming off as delusional. It's a state that has an inflated view of itself, and, like Trump and the current version of the U.S., it wants every benefit and no responsibilities. India wants to be a neutral state, but it also wants to be a superpower at the same time, you can't do both. They want to play superpower games and throw around their weight, but when the heat gets turned up they'll run behind neutrality as if it will save them. When you're a small player with no enemies you can be neutral, when you have enemies, rivals, etc., you'll have to navigate the treacherous path of geopolitics and pick friends, allies, and learn to deal with adversaries.
