Ambassador Bhadrakumar retired years ago. He understands the points you make and is angry that South Block lives in a fantasy world. He would have India reach territorial compromises with Pakistan and China and contribute to as well as profit from these developments.
Seems you are very much India centric & not ready to see the region without India. Suggests you need to come out from this...
CPEC as said earlier is the game changer in the region & now its proving the same, hence world (US/EU) need to understand the dynamics of the region & start seeing this region without India....dead case....(until unless India change their regional policy & sort out Kashmir issue with Pakistan under UN resolutions & give freedom to Kashmir people who are fighting for more than 6 decades for freedom).
US only interest is to containing the PRC and "communism" at someone else's cost...period.
The dilemma for US in this region is that their strategy makers/Govt. always focus/invested the on corrupt leaders of the respected countries to fulfill their regional goals & hardly invested on ground for the betterment of locals, that is why there is very less or no sympathy for US among locals.
While OTOH China is winning the hearts of the local people by investing on ground instead to governments & now become lead runner of the region (for example see the African development now & before).
Believe US needs revisit their strategy, if they want to counter China.
