Biden is a genius. He gave weapons to Ukranians Nationalists, got them to invade the Donbass telling them Russia wouldn't do a thing about it because it feared NATO. Russia took the bait and by invading the Ukraine it became a Rogue State. Bye Putin! Also the US became the Gas supplier of Europe and is making a lot of money selling weapons to Europe. And the most important thing is that from now on, no European country will dare to contradict us as Germany and France did in the past. All of this without shooting a single bullet. Ukranians are the cheapest cannon fodder you can find China, Old Joe is coming after you next!

Russia wants India back as their Cold War friend. Perhaps India still loves that wonderful time . At that time, the country was in the verge of starvation, BTW. Let her be. Besides the energy issue. How does India respond to the killing of innocent Ukrainians and unprovoked invasion of Russia? Where is your moral compass? Apparently, India is no different from China, North Korea, Vietnam, Cuba,… who sides with Russia at any cost. Perhaps the US, Japan, Australia should not count on India as a part of their Indo- Pacifist strategy. Let India stay in the BRIC and the Chinese led security organization. Now the free world knows the true India. There will be no world outrage next time when China and Pakistan gang up to attack India.

Problem with India's defensive and cautious foreign policy wrt to Pakistan is, whichever camp India goes to, Pakistan goes to other camp. So Pakistan is reactive foreign policy. Ex: After India bought russian oil, Pakistani Army general said they were close to US. So unless India is more aggressive in foreign policy like China, we will slowly be decimated over this and next decade. India must agressively pursue mutual defensive alliance with countries like Israel to help them defend against Middle East in return for their help with Pakistan(Since pakistan wants to help Middle East destroy Israel), Indonesia and Vietnam(for Chinese) Not US, UK who are snakes that will mess us up, And finally ban all foreign NGOs. Indian NAM policy will be its detriment since Chinese and Pakistanis are playing around ours and undermining us always.

And in Magna Carta which was issued in June 1215 and was the first document to put into writing the principle that the king and his government was not above the law. It sought to prevent the king from exploiting his power, and placed limits of royal authority by establishing law as a power in itself. Magna Carta, charter of English liberties granted by King John on June 15, 1215, under threat of civil war and reissued, with alterations, in 1216, 1217, and 1225. By declaring the sovereign to be subject to the rule of law and documenting the liberties held by “free men,” the Magna Carta provided the foundation for individual rights in Anglo-American jurisprudence.

I think Europe has been a mute spectator when Afghanistan was left to its destiny. The moral compass should be same so that free society prosper and democracy wins. What is happening in Ukraine is because of acting blind to concerns of Russia. No sovereign country would like to get threatened by its neighbors.

"Acting blindly to concerns of Russia. " what's that ?

[@globalnationalismyoutube]

Europe and The U.S and Canada were involved in Afghanistan for 20 years. However the Afghan people eventually rejected them and so they left. That's not the west' s fault. Their fault was in leaving weapons and equipment behind for the Taliban to use.

[@srinivasangopal5139]

The fact that they expect, in the false hope, that since the heat is on them, India should act as per their wishes. EAM being in diplomacy is great and answers head on and the British Foreign Secretary was not only fumbling for words but could not articulate properly. EAM's answers are straightforward and no country can bully India. The BFS should that the present India is a strong India and cannot be brought down. The sooner they learn the better it is. Jai Hind

Some statesmen cross boundaries of political parties and are absolutely essential to the development of a nation. One of the most brilliant minds of our nation, Mr. Jaishankar, is one such statesman. His and his ministry's efforts to secure our nation's interests, our relationships with our international partners and also strengthening India's international standing has been commendable. It is a matter of pride to watch an statesman stand up and command respect for his nation. Wonderful to see the legacy of the late Smt. Sushma Swaraj being carried forward With utmost pride and respect, thank you MEA India.
