India Says ‘No Change’ in Policy Towards Russia

191307195.jpg


NEW DELHI, July 31 (RIA Novosti) – India has so far been able to ignore Washington's imperative to turn its back on Russia in a bid to tighten US sanctions grip after the Indian foreign policy chief said Thursday the nation’s policy toward Moscow remained unchanged.

“There is no change in our policy. We think that foreign policy is in continuity. Foreign policy does not change with the change in the government,” Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said in a comment on India’s relations with Russia following the deadly crash of the Malaysian airliner in eastern Ukraine.

On Thursday, Sushma Swaraj met in New Delhi with US Secretary of State John Kerry who is on a mission to restore America’s crumbling ties with India in the wake of the NSA phone hacking scandal.

Talking about US sanctions on Russia, Kerry said Washington “will obviously welcome India joining in with respect to [sanctions] but its India's choice.”

The United States is reportedly mounting a campaign in Southeast Asia to press some of its nations into toeing US line on Russia, according to The Wall Street Journal.

On Wednesday, the daily cited a senior US State Department official as saying he had met government officials in China, Singapore and South Korea this week to provide “a briefing on what we've done, answering questions and seeking support,” according to the report.

"It's certainly our hope that countries in this region — which includes many significant financial and commercial centers — would join us in putting pressure [on Russia]," the senior official said.

The diplomat didn’t give details of the results of the talks but noted that "good and open exchanges of views" took place.

Meanwhile, a spokesperson for South Korea's Foreign Ministry told The Wall Street Journal that Seoul hasn't committed to any sanctions against Russia. The representative added the talks with US officials involved not only Russia but also other issues, including Iran.

On Tuesday, the Chosun Libo newspaper reported that Peter Harrell of the US State Department arrived in Seoul in order to persuade South Korea to impose sanctions against Russia.

The same day, the United States as well as the European Union announced new rounds of sanctions against Russia, once again accusing Moscow of supporting militia forces in eastern Ukraine.

Defense acquisitions cannot curb the present foreign policy.
India is not a war torn state that India can't live without weapons.

At some point of time US will realize that this ain't a cold war era and u can't arm twist people to toe your line. I thought the Luke warm response to sanctions by European nations should've been a pointer that nations around the globe are following more independent policy to suit themselves rather than obliging a collective decision making. Let alone India, i don't think there would be many takers for US demand anywhere.

A dwindling US trying its level best to impose its will on the world。:rofl:

There are better chances that Russia will Impose sanctions on Russia than India Imposing Sanctions of Russia
