‘India has done some things that rub the U.S. the wrong way. For instance, you buy your military gear from Russia. And then India is a part of BRICS. That’s not really the way to make friends in America. President Trump is calling this out,’ says U.S. Commerce Secretary Lutnick

Henry Kissinger, father of American foreign policy once said "To be an enemy of the US is dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal" No one can trust Americans unfortunately Russia 🇷🇺 is a brother for India 🇮🇳

Really? Pakistan is a colony of China but Trump considers Pakistan a great friend now. No, it's not as simple as buying arms from Russia. Something has changed in Trump 2.0 wrt India. But, it's better that India now gets this clarity about this US admin.

For India, the right way to rub the United States now is by buying Su-57s, S-500 and Voronezh radar.

India's success strory thus far has been despite America. A friend of our enemy can never be a trusted friend in the long term. India's relationship with the US can be at best transactional until such time they keep propping up anti India forces.

Time for India to move back to Russian jets. Enough of French and American drama where they don't share tech & source codes and only sell equipment to keep the dependency going.

India must strive to reach a condition where the US should worry about rubbing India in the wrong way instead of the US telling India that India has rubbed them in the wrong way.

Who wants to make friends with US? US is untrustworthy. It has done nothing to transfer technology to India. It supports Pakistan despite it is clear that Pak sponsored terrorists carried out the recent terror attacks on innocent civilians in Pahalgam. Its prime interest lies in employing India to contain China in the Indo-Pacific. That is not in India’s interests.

What US wants is a slave like Pakistan that toes its line. Whatever it says, pakistan should say yes sir and do it. We Indians will do whatever things that suit our country the best just like US does. Friends dont have to toe the line of each others always, they can have disagreements but still remain committed to friendship and have each others backs when the broader picture is in question which US does not understand. As someone famous said, 'Its bad to be an enemy of the US, but its fatal to be its friend' So take your free advice and shove it where the sun doesnt shine.

So let's get this straight, Lutnick. India buying Russian arms rubs the U.S. the wrong way? Cry us a river. You funded Pakistan’s terror machine for decades — F-16s, dollars, intel — all used to butcher Indian soldiers. And now you expect loyalty? We bought from Russia because when we were fighting for our survival, you backed the enemy. 1962? You stood silent. 1971? You sent the 7th Fleet to threaten us. Russia stood with us. That’s called loyalty — something your foreign policy lacks. BRICS isn’t anti-American. It’s anti-bullying. You hate it because for once, countries are uniting without begging for Washington’s approval. Newsflash: the world isn’t your chessboard anymore. And Trump “calling this out”? The same guy who wanted to trade Kashmir like property, called Modi “father of India,” and danced to Bollywood in Houston for votes? That clown? India is not your sidekick. We’re not your colony. We’re 1.4 billion strong, a nuclear power, and the future engine of global growth. We’re not here to “make friends.” We’re here to set the rules. You don’t like it? That’s your problem.

Mr. Lutnick, let's discuss India's path to its current stance. Post-independence, India faced threats from Pakistan, backed by the U.S. during the 1965 and 1971 wars. The U.S. sending the USS Enterprise in 1971 was perceived as a threat, deepening distrust. During the Cold War, the U.S. prioritized Pakistan against Soviet influence, providing military aid that indirectly threatened India, especially as Pakistan developed nuclear capabilities with some U.S. technology. The Afghan-Soviet War further entrenched this alliance, enhancing Pakistan's military infrastructure. Post-9/11, the U.S. again supported Pakistan with billions in aid, despite its role in terrorism against India. This pattern has reinforced India's need for strategic autonomy. Russia has been a reliable partner, providing critical military technology when the West was less forthcoming. India's BRICS involvement is about diversifying global engagements and countering Western dominance, not undermining the U.S. Understanding this history is key to constructive dialogue. India's actions are a response to decades of strategic necessities. Maybe take a little time to understand how we got her before rambling on. #IndiaUSRelations #Geopolitics
