even so called "west" and russia knows that we are not going to break of with russia or anyone else just becuase of them we never did that and we even today wont do that no matter what and even russia and USA knows this fact too very well
now the thing is how does it helps pakistani cuase to get russian cutting edge hardware ?
bieng a friend with russia doesnt means bieng a enemy of west or vice versa as per indias forign policy and good you mentioned ukrine do you think russia gonna forget indian stand on that when west wanted us to do otherwise ... what changed did we dropped russian interests for sake of so called "west"
think about it
We are in 21st century and things have changed a lot now . India was in Russian block for decades which benefitted both nations one militarily and one economically today India wants to assure Russia that even if she buys weapons from west and US they would still be buying some from Russia so in this scenario India would be having a upper hand to choose what she likes but this is not how world works and you can pick up your history books if you have any to see what I mean.
Power is above money and Russia would not like to loose her influence on India and that too at the hands of her enemies. Though India badly wants things to work in the above mentioned way but Russian recent sales of helicopters to Pakistan and now this "slip" of tongue from their deputy foreign minister clearly shows their warnings to india now choice is yours but this dream of playing ball with both Russian and US,EU block would never materialize and I gave you the example of Crimea to give you a glimpse of Russian thinking they spent 40 billion on war directly and their over all losses including sanctions goes 100 billion plus just because they did what they felt was right.
India will have to choose one of them and under Israeli influence we know what the choice would be so there are bright chances of seeing SU 35 in Pak colors.
