Modi was pretty blunt saying that if they stopped importing Russian energy and fertilizer, it would mean famine next year.

I think at the end of this, we'll be dealing with a new and very strong economic block of India, China, and Russia but we'll see. I don't see why these countries invest in US debt, but they do. I don't understand these nations, they can't be possibly stupider than I am. I must be either profoundly ignorant about how international politics works, or just stupid.

I don't understand why China sells things for the toilet paper that the Fed just prints. I don't get it.

As long as the transfer of manufacturing tech from the US to China continues, it's worthwhile for them.

They get the know-how and the physical factories on the ground. US workers get screwed, and then get called "racist" when they object to getting screwed.

Good. It's time to choose the side of the new Iron Curtain carefully : either you are with Russia and China or you are on US/Eupope side. I personally root for India going full retard and jumping into Putin/Xi bed with both feet - this should put a huge dent in all the offshoring and outsourcing bullshit and lift US-based tech workers' wages.

I can agree with this, but I think that that India/China/Russia will be quite a competition.

I think Europe, Russia, South America, India, and North America should have made an economic block. It's a lost opportunity now, bunch of dumb fucking Neocon assholes screwed up that possibility in the 1990s. Fucking hate the Neocons. They are stupid and make nothing but trouble.

Sikhs are pro American and wouldn’t mind creating South Korea or Taiwan like country with US military bases to give US foothold in South Asia.

Pro-American or pro-criminal-government that runs America?

There's a huge difference.

Did the Sikhs support our last 7 stupid, pointless wars that did nothing other than hurt the United States?

Peaceful transfer of power in Pakistan?
In what one observer called the "affirmation of democracy," the move was by no means inevitable in a country where no prime minister has served a full term in office.
Surprising observers, the all-powerful Pakistan army, which has ruled the country for decades by staging coups, stayed in the barracks.

People are entitled to have views about us. But we're also equally entitled to have views about their views...Whenever there's discussion, won't be reticent about speaking up

Above is the response from Indan external minister about US concerns of human rights in India. This minister is tearing a new one from US foreign policy.

Indians piss and shit in their own streets and call it holy or cleanliness or something.

"India has almost wiped out extreme poverty: International Monetary Fund"

My only concern, we need to worry about what will happen in west now going forward.
