Reply to comment by SweetLemonCandy in UK's House of Commons defence panel calls for expansion of AUKUS to include India, Japan by Kenrockkun

Does the definition of west here includes "armchair worldnews experts with honors degree in headlines reading" or government of repsective Western countries. Imho, it definitely doesn't includes the latter.

It includes policy advisors to the White House and Senate like Janis Lazda.

“India’s stance on the Ukraine war makes little sense.. The country hasn’t just dumped its democratic principles but is providing crucial financial support for Russia’s brutal invasion.”

This is just opinion piece from a person who "was" an advisor. Like armchair experts like us, our opinion doesn't matter in grander scheme of geopolitics. Even if Obama criticise India it would mean jack shit.

Even Ukrainian President Zelensky has not criticised India. He even invited Indian PM to Ukraine.

I get that you are from India and feel the need to defend your home country but I criticize my own country quite a bit. You’d be better off facing the negative truth from time to time than sticking your head in the sand.

I provided multiple sources in my edit above. You haven’t provided any.

You criticized me as being an armchair expert, when this is Reddit. What on earth do you expect?

I provided an actual, expert opinion, which you criticized as being a former advisor as though that invalidates all his experience. You must be a troll because according to your mindset, there’s no reason to comment at all.
