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.
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.
