4 South Asian Countries Abstain Voting Against Russia

[KedarT]

By the way what is Eritrea doing by favoring a Russian invasion? They themselves will have a threat of being gobbled up by the neighboring African countries

Looks like Russia also has a naval base in Eritrea.

This report examines the geopolitical context in the Red Sea and the potential implications of a Russian naval base in Eritrea.

India's POV and even Pakistan's POV to some extent is understandable but what about Sri Lanka and BD?

Current BD's and Sri Lankan regimes are under severe pressure from the West in the name of Human rights.

The surprise are Nepal and Bhutan which voted in favor of the resolution.

 

[Turingsage]

All CSTO countries abstained or voted Against the resolution (Supported Russia)

Of the 6 ( previously 7 but Uzbeck's left in 2012 ) ONLY 2 voted in favour, and one was Russia itself while the other was Belarus run by that ruthless dictator Lukashenko

Interesting to see India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh on the same side for the Ukraine-Russia crisis. India's POV and even Pakistan's POV to some extent is understandable but what about Sri Lanka and BD?

The headline is correct and is based on the countries that voted and not on those who abstained or remained neutral.

They have no stake in the conflict. Choosing a side will definitely hurt their interests post war, which is why most south Asian nations abstained.

Brown people wanting to be abstain

Brown people hung out to dry

 

[satyamev]

why did china abstain ? I thought china was forming a new anti west partnership with Russia ? They should have supported Russia.
Fear of sanctions ?

 

[Srinivas]

Feel bad for Ukrainian civilians but Pakistan should never vote in such racist groups like united nations. What did the world did for Kashmir and Palestine? Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya destruction is also a fresh memory for most Muslims.

The list Also should include Pakistani proxy invasion of Afghanistan.

 

[Maula Jatt]

The list Also should include Pakistani proxy invasion of Afghanistan.

You did it with every single neighbor of yours Sri Lanka, bangaldesh, Nepal
Some successful (Bangladesh) others not

Exactly let the Europeans figure it out. Now its our turn to say let them "figure it out for themselves"

When the world ignored Kashmir, I too ignore the conflicts or disputes of the Europeans.

Let the "Europeans figure it for themselves."

The list Also should include Pakistani proxy invasion of Afghanistan.

Afghanistan is a Muslim country dependent on Pakistan. We have every right to claim it, you moron.

 

[CrazyZ]

Are taliban voting for Afghanistan or old Crew of diplomats from previous regime

Taliban aren't recognized. Its the previous regime reps.
