Reply to comment by pk10534 in German chancellor visits India to boost India's relations with the west and possibly move India away from Russia. by CHTanwar

There's a thing called growth. India's economy may be small now, but it will rival China and US in the coming 25-30 years. You may have a very myopic view of the world, but I don't think the policymakers sitting in the US do too. Well, atleast that is what I hope to believe. All your allies in UK, France, Germany,etc will fall in riches(as compared to the developing nations) and as result, in relevancy in these next 25-30 yrs. Let's see how you stand alone then. As I said before, losing India to Chin-Rus will be the biggest geopolitical blunder of the US. It will hurt you more than you think.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 81%. (I'm a bot)

> On the eve of the first anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the United Nations General Assembly approved a non-biding resolution calling for Russia to end its hostilities in Ukraine and withdraw its troops from the country.

> At Saturday's gathering, Taipei City Councillor Miao Po-ya said the people of Ukraine have demonstrated their "Resilience" and "Determination" to combat Russian forces over the past year.

> If Ukrainian people had chosen to cave in to Moscow's ambitions a year ago, the world today would have been completely different, she said, urging Taiwanese people to continue supporting Ukraine in its fight against Russia.

Reply to comment by Shigsy89 in Chinese fighter jet confronts US Navy plane with CNN crew aboard as tensions simmer in South China Sea by Cheezied

What would the smaller neighbors do then? They've been repeatedly... like I wrote above by big nuclear power China. The smaller PH already took them to the international Hague which invalidated their sham 9-dash map lawfully and peacefully, yet China don't want to honor it. Some don't even have the appropriate aircraft to intercept at all, nothing.

So the US doing that is a welcome move. Why in the world would you favor big nuclear China doing their repeated things over the smaller bullied neighbors?

Say If there are no bullied smaller neighbors there or any at all in there, and then the US on the other side of the planet being there, then criticize them as you want.

You immediately criticize the US as playing dick, yet you didn't criticize China's many things at all especially on that particular sky/sea where they have no jurisdiction in the first place? So how are you balanced and unbiased? You've thought first about what big bully nuclear China felt but not the bullied smaller neighbors? The Hague Ruling is the real balanced and unbiased, no big, no small, no powerful, no weak, international and outside of any pressure from big neighbors.
