What must be really irritating Washington is the US lacks the material leverage to bend India like its typical vassals. Whether it is food security, energy security, industrial capacity, broader economic growth or military security, India’s actual dependence on the US is minimal should it come to a serious... show more

India funds and supports the US massively. It buys its debt, and not buys only its goods but also is the largest market for its digital products. Not to mention, India offers vast amounts of its users and their data for free, which the US utilizes. Even for training its latest AI models. And Indian companies invest billions of dollars annually in the US, creating tens of thousands of American jobs. In return, all India demands is a little respect and fair treatment. However, the US treats India as if it is doing a favor. This is when India doesn't even get a US security guarantee like NATO states or other Asian allies. Instead, India is troubled by the US using its proxies and its DS run democratic subversion. It is time for India to consider selling US treasuries and reducing its holdings of USD in favor of gold and other goods or currencies if they keep talking like this. Then think seriously about digital freedom from American platforms. This is as critical as a Jet Engine or AMCA for India. I am dead serious.

#WATCH | Washington, DC | Former Pentagon official and a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, Michael Rubin, says, "My advice to Pakistan is to cease its terrorist sponsorship. It can try to take advantage of any world leader, but ultimately, it is going to pay the price. Indeed, we see with Pakistan's own internal discord that it has paid a great price. India alone is responsible for its national security. It needs to base its national security on reality, not the promises of temporary leaders and insincere partners. Donald Trump may want to pretend that he is the fulcrum of negotiations but ultimately the only person who should decide whats good for India, are those within India's government and Prime Minister Modi himself. India needs to realise that Donald Trump alone is not incharge of US policy. The US Congress is, and it, in a bipartisan manner, embraces India. We are far less willing to let Pakistan's malign and terrorist sponsor behaviour slide than perhaps the White House. Sometimes it is important for India to simply ignore the advice or the commands they are getting from Washington, much in the same way that Benjamin Netanyahu ignored the desire of President Trump and put Israel's national security first and foremost... There is little mood in Washington for Pakistan's nonsense. If Pakistan thinks that it can fool the United States, ultimately, Asim Munir is going to end up like his Iranian military counterpart..."

'Anybody who studies the so-called foreign policies of the US and its vassals...will know that an enemy is essential.’ -John Pilger (1939-2023) The need for there to always be an enemy in US foreign policy is to justify the perpetual expansion of the military-industrial complex and budget for the War Department. Peace cannot break out, because if it does, the profits of the military-industrial complex will contract. War is a business, Iran is just the latest on the long list of enemies the US has used to justify this business. So long as the military-industrial complex is left to be an out-of-control shadow government controlling US foreign policy, the risk of global animation through world war and nuclear war will not go away.

#WATCH | Washington DC, USA: On the visit of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio to India, South Asia analyst, Michael Kugelman, says, "This is clearly a significant moment for US-India relations... It has been quite some time since an official, a senior as Marco Rubio has visited India... It is important that he is coming to India to participate in this Quad meeting... The fact that Rubio is there to participate in the Quad Summit suggests that the Trump administration continues to be committed to the Quad... President Trump himself would be prepared to travel to India at some point later this year, presumably to participate in the leaders summit. In terms of what Marco Rubio said today about India and how it's the cornerstone for the US-India strategic partnership in the Indo-Pacific strategy... There will be some curiosity as to whether there will be follow-through in Rubio's comment as to whether we start to see this administration focus more on the Indo-Pacific strategy and ensure that India continues to be the key part of that strategy..."

#WATCH | Berlin, Germany: When asked if India has any role to play in initiating peace amid the West Asia crisis, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh says, "India has tried... But everything has its time. It is possible that tomorrow, the time may come when India plays its role in this and achieves success as well. We cannot rule out this possibility. The Prime Minister has appealed to both sides to end the war. Our Prime Minister has a very balanced approach to diplomatic matters." He adds, "...When he (PM Modi) met Russian President Putin and the Ukrainian President, he discussed this. Even when he met Trump, he also discussed and said that a solution should be found... The way India is moving, you must have seen that in the Strait of Hormuz, no ship from any country was able to pass through. If anyone managed to pass through their 7–8 ships, then it was India... It is not that the US considers India as its enemy, or Iran considers India as its enemy. No, this is a very balanced approach of India."

Dr. Trita Parsi (Trita Parsi) | Middle East Expert | Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft: The US ability to use military threat against Iran - or to act as a reliable regional balancer - is now in question. Regional powers that relied on the US will diversify. They need guarantees beyond what the US can provide. US security umbrella proved unreliable. It can no longer be the bedrock of regional security. This doesn't mean a more stable Middle East is coming. Finding a new security equation will be difficult & potentially destabilizing. This war is an inflection point - accelerating the move toward multipolarity. But multipolarity may not mean order. At least not at first. We don't know yet what that world will look like.

Military action in Bangladesh is what the Deep State wants India to get into and India must not do that "One Mistake." India's military action must only be in eliminating Pakistan as a threat. And it will solve a lot of issues for India including with B'desh, the US and China.

The objection by the representative of India to Pakistan's mention of Jammu and Kashmir in the Arria Formula meeting was not surprising to us. India, as a party to the Jammu and Kashmir dispute, has actually refused to implement the Security Council resolutions on this dispute, and has even refused to cooperate with the United Nations, including the good offices of the Secretary-General, and with all those mechanisms that form part of Chapter VI. As I stated in my statement, Kashmir is an international dispute. It is on the agenda of the Security Council. It was never a part of India, and it is not, and cannot be, part of India — because this was the core question at the heart of these Security Council resolutions on Jammu and Kashmir. The purpose was to determine the status of this territory: whether it wishes to be part of India or Pakistan. That status has not yet been determined, because the resolutions have not been implemented. To assert that Kashmir is a part of India is, in fact, itself a violation of the relevant Security Council resolutions. Please watch my response below to the misleading remarks of the Indian representative

Pakistan has unexpectedly found itself at the centre of a major geopolitical story. As the United States and Iran move towards a tentative understanding, Washington's renewed warmth towards Islamabad has raised important questions for India. From public praise for Pakistan's military leadership to its role in facilitating communication between the US and Iran, Pakistan's international standing appears to be receiving a significant boost. Is this merely a temporary convergence of interests, or does it signal a broader reset in US-Pakistan relations? In this episode of India and the World, Nidhi Razdan(Nidhi Razdan) is joined by Kanwal Sibal(Kanwal Sibal), former Foreign Secretary of India; Daniel Silverberg(Daniel Silverberg), Foreign Policy Analyst and former foreign policy advisor to the House Democratic leadership in Washington DC; and Ambassador Sanjay Bhattacharyya(Sanjay Bhattacharyya), former Indian diplomat and writer. The discussion examines Pakistan's growing relevance in Washington, the future of US-India ties, whether India should be concerned about Islamabad's renewed diplomatic profile, the implications of the Iran-US understanding, India's energy security, and the strategic lessons New Delhi must draw from a rapidly changing geopolitical landscape. #Pakistan #India #USA #Geopolitics #USPakistanRelations #Iran #NidhiRazdan #IndiaAndTheWorld #DeKoder #ForeignPolicy #InternationalRelations #WestAsia

CHILLING CALL TO LIBERATE KASHMIR ON BANGLADESHI SOIL BY PAK TALIBAN!!! BUT WHAT exactly is India doing? India supplies the raw cotton that fuels Bangladesh’s garment exports. India keeps the lights on in Bangladesh through power, pipelines, power plants. India underwrites Dhaka's food security with rice, wheat, sugar, essentials. India builds roads, rails, ports LoCs, grants, connectivity. India trains Bangladesh’s bureaucracy, judiciary, military. India enables trade, transit, and access. This is serious leverage. So why isn’t it used?

🇮🇳Indian dilemma for USA 👑India, which was once the Crown Jewel of the British Empire, offers tantalizing geopolitical opportunities for the US Empire, often for the same reasons. 🇬🇧And just like the British Empire did not want India to gain independence, the US Empire also does not want India to enjoy strategic autonomy. This is precisely why the US ambassador to India bluntly warned Indians – like a mafioso – that India enjoys no such thing as strategic autonomy. The US wants India to be an “ally” – euphemism for vassal – whose foreign policies perfectly align with those of the US. That is, the enemy of the US should be an enemy of India. (Think Russia, China and Iran). Also, America’s wars should be India’s wars; and ideally, India will allow US military bases. Finally, India should not promote BRICS or de-dollarization. After all, the dollar underpins the might of the US Empire. 2/10

Savarkar was a Nostradamus or the father of Bharat’s security as he correctly predicted almost all of our security challenges - from Pakistan to China to Assam. In this video, I explain why India should have a Savarkar Doctrine to find solutions to India’s security challenges. There is a debate going on whether Savarkar should be honoured with Bharat Ratna. In fact Bharat Ratna’s weight will increase if it is conferred on Savarkar. But Bharat Ratna or not, India can’t delay coming up with a Savarkar Security Doctrine in view of the monumental security challenges that it will face in the time to come.

India’s Afghan Gambit A Security Play Targeting Pakistan India has historically viewed Afghanistan through a security lens rather than a political or economic one, using it as a means to exert sub-conventional pressure on Pakistan, a strategy articulated by Indian NSA Ajit Doval. The recent visit of Afghanistan’s foreign minister to New Delhi suggests India seeks a more direct security engagement with Kabul, moving beyond its previous indirect influence. While Pakistan has no issue with constructive economic and political ties between India and Afghanistan, any security cooperation, including intelligence sharing or joint sub-conventional activities, poses a serious threat to Pakistan’s national interests. Islamabad must closely monitor these developments and respond through diplomatic, intelligence, and strategic measures to safeguard its security and regional stability.

It is completely unreasonable to criticize the US for its new security strategy, since for decades the Americans have had to pay for Europe's security, and Estonia has no interest in joining the clamor of the European left. Our interest is stable relations with the US.

India and China Are Face to Face Again: China is threatening India’s national security by expanding strategic infrastructure in the Shaksgam Valley. It lies extremely close to the Siachen Glacier and the Karakoram Range, making it one of the most sensitive regions in the Himalayas. Any large scale construction here directly affects India’s military balance, surveillance capability, and long term border security. China has used this playbook before in Aksai Chin by building first and claiming later. This time, India is responding with strategic roads to Daulat Beg Oldie, ensuring mobility, supplies, and constant monitoring. The lesson is clear. India will not tolerate any compromise on its sovereignty or national security. Jai Hind.
