Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) and Global South strategic cooperation
- Thread starter Strangelove
- Start date
There is a great Chinese IR scholar 李梓硕 studying in India right now. He gives an inside view on how Indian elites really view the global south (spoilers, they don't believe in the global south and just want to take advantage of them)
If you follow his posts, you know he already has a slight pro-India bias, otherwise the Indian security agent that's monitoring him would give him trouble. He also shared a conversation he overheard that is representative of how Indians in India feel about China. The post was censored on Weibo, for obvious reasons.
His institution is probably the most left leaning major institution in India, yet the theories taught there towards China is still very antagonistic. He shows how Indian domestic think tanks and media also push these Anti-China agenda that is commonly found on western think tanks and media.
The India problem for China isn't just a Modi or BJP problem, it also isn't just an online Jai Hind problem, the hatred towards China permeates all throughout Indian society.
China needs an readjustment of its policy towards India, this also ties into multilateral organizations like SCO and BRICS.

India is the enemy of the entire world.
I mean, I don't know what response anyone can have to this other than "duh."
they are suckers, subservient to their elite masters
Once you realize India is just a shameless clout chaser, its a lot easier to understand them.
I read up back in the 50s/60s China wanted to enter a partnership with India but India rejected it coz China wasn't "cool enough". So in the end China joined Pakistan instead. Zhou Enlai who was said to outsmart Nehru stated he never met a more arrogant person than him. And this was a man who faced his enemies in person who wanted him dead.
To this day India is paying the price because they only chase the current clout and can't see anything long term. One has to wonder how many more mistakes will come to bite it in the ass. If there are enough, the country may not survive it.

A lot of engagement between China and Turkey lately. Xi is expected to visit Turkey in early 2025.
It's also noteworthy to remember the role of Trump's sanctions, tariffs, and unhinged erratic tweets in Turkey's 2018 economic crisis, and Biden hasn't been much better. So Turkey's pivot to China and BRICS is to be expected.
