    What goodwill has India built up? They don’t need goodwill because the US won’t do shit against India so long as China exists.

      I can’t describe how absolutely idiotic your comment makes you look.

      Indian diplomats, ambassadors, Prime Ministers, Presidents, politicians, workers (both blue & white collar), some corporates have worked hard for 75+ years to create goodwill for India abroad. This goodwill earns India opportunities for import-export business, FDI, employment, study scholarships, diplomatic support, emergency support (remember the medical equipment & oxygen supplies foreign countries sent over during covid?), emergency food imports, co-operation in finding escaped criminals, tourism including medical tourism.

      If you think India can wreck hell around the world and assassinate whoever it wants to because US needs it against China, then you are mistaken. India’ll end up marked as a terrorist nation and will be sanctioned.
