Reply to comment by DieAnotherDay1985 in Russia’s new foreign policy strategy identifies China, India as main allies by Falls_stuff

Russia is a star fucker. Iran has a regime that hates the exact same people Russia hates and have been nothing but supportive in their bullshit, but because they're not the up and coming global powers, Russia is going to just leave them as a backup.

These are the assholes who wonder why they have no friends in their 30s despite thinking themselves popular in their twenties.

No, this is the reality of global politics, is taking backing from one super power or another. This isn't a game of who's friends with who, because nations don't have friends, just conveniences.

China and India make sense, share a land border, and being neutral ground between two large hostile powers gives diplomatic leverage.
