I told you baba. He thinks pakistan and US are lesser evil hence why are we not buckling under pressure! Then he chastisise Jaishankar on being anti-USA(?), The guy who is chastised by leftists for his pro-USA sentiments


.
I don't know where do these people get their knowledge from. They confuse strategic autonomy with strategic subservience (a common mistake of UPA and Leftists). They want to be in someone lap and become a lapdog but can't cope when countrymen don't prefer that path anymore. It's India and only Indian interests. Period. If those interests means that we need optics with China, so be it. Better than mingling with terrorists and their enablers and do their bidding.
And he seriously thinks US can neglect India, the only country in Indo-pacific which have the potential and have risen to the challenge in last 10 years.
Neither Japan not SK have the geographical depth and political heft needed to counter china.
But Chinese don't have any other nation to counter USA in east either. It can hardly afford the fantasy some indian leftists have of balkanising India. China would be balkanised first if that happens. Tibetan and Uhigyur populace isn't for show. One kaum is prone to radicalisation while myanmar should let anyone know that buddhism doesn't mean subservience to another religion.
We need to chart our own course and criticise govt when they do something averse to our sovereignity. i.e. (demographic change, appeasement, digital & data protection, allowing foreign firms' subsidaries to be counted as indian vendors, making a deal with US under pressure harming our farmers etc, the 87 MALE drone debacle about to happen)
And hydra.. if it's your logic that farmers should be given up on due to farm law protests and toolkits ( which ironically was funded by your western civilization), then you would be the top contender who should be given up on due to your indulgence with anti-India narratives and jihadi sources. But govt( as an institution ) doesn't work that way. It's not going to give up on millions of its own people due to manipulation of west.
