"Russia milks India": Indian readers discuss an article by a parliamentarian that "Russia is not a friend of India"

84

The Indian edition of the Sunday Guardian Live published an article that attracts attention not only in India, but also in Russia.

The reason is the very provocative nature of the material, the author of which is one of the oldest members of the Indian Parliament, the former Minister of Justice, the former Minister of Trade of the country Subramanian Swami.



The title of Mr. Swami's material speaks for itself: "Russia is not India's friend."

The 81-year-old parliamentarian in his article makes a reference to Soviet-Indian relations, stating that the USSR "was friends not with India, but with the Nehru-Gandhi clan."

For reference: Jawaharlal Nehru - the first Prime Minister of India (1947-1964), father of Indira Gandhi, grandfather of Rajiv Gandhi.

Subramanian Swami in his article makes, to put it mildly, ambiguous statements:

India's connection with Russia, that is, the Soviet Union, was carried out through the political elite, such politicians as Jawaharlal Nehru and his clique, who supported the bureaucracy. Nehru in the USSR was tricked into thinking that the leaders in Moscow were constant friends, but in reality we Indians were more like Pavlov's dogs, which obeyed signals from Moscow. The relevance of this stories in the fact that many Indians still consider Russian friends of India, little understanding that in international relations there are neither permanent friends nor permanent enemies.


Swami further writes that the Soviet KGB maintained close contacts with the Nehru-Gandhi family, and then it is pointedly added that "Putin previously worked in the KGB of the USSR."

From an article by an 81-year-old Indian parliamentarian:

The question arises: will Putin's Russia be a true friend of India today in our border war with China? The answer will come when we understand what Russian-Chinese friendship is today. My short answer to the question is no. The reason is that the Russians are acting in accordance with the interests of China. That is, Russia is China's “junior partner”. Russia, according to Putin's October 23, 2020 statement, "may enter into a military alliance with China."

Further, Swami "taxied" on the theme that India "probably in vain bought the S-400 air defense system from Russia."

"Russia milks India": Indian readers discuss an article by a parliamentarian that "Russia is not a friend of India"

On the whole, such statements once again make it clear that in India itself there are forces that express the interests of not India itself. In this case, behind the messages of Mr. Swami, the ears of those who are going to strike at the Indian-Russian partnership, including in the military-technical sphere, are clearly sticking out. To do this, people like Mr. Swami will expose their obscure arguments as the ultimate truth.

The last few phrases in an article by a member of the Indian Parliament speak eloquently to whose mill this man is pouring water.

Russia is no longer India's friend - since 1992.

Then Swami writes about the need for a choice, including the option of considering a strategic partnership with the United States and expanding an alliance against China at the expense of Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Indonesia.

According to the Indian parliamentarian, India does not need allies in the border conflict with China.

It is noteworthy that, when discussing the article, a number of readers of the Indian press agreed with the arguments of Subrahmanyan Swami.
A few comments:


I totally agree, Mr. Swami. Russia milks India. This Putin is like a snake in the grass, he can bite anyone.

Excellent article, Mr. Swami

However, the point of view of a member of the Indian parliament and ex-minister of the Indian government is not shared by everyone in this country. Many believe that it is not at all about making friends or enmity with Russia. It is noted that, in any case, there should be balanced relations with Russia, and not emotions like those that the deputy allows himself. Many were openly outraged by Swami's comparison of Indians with "Pavlov's dogs".

      And not only Russia. Also the USA, France, Israel milk India. And the latter seemed to like it as always. Or did you decide to redistribute cash flows in someone's favor? The US military-industrial complex is not enough, so they pay for such "experts" who shape public opinion in the direction they need.

              Swami ... but not at all with us wink

              If you dig deeper, a swami is a special monastic order, this is the status of a yogi or a hermit who renounced everything worldly. Translated means "possessing feelings" or "free from feelings" ... Saint, in general (or at least trying to become one). He may be a spiritual teacher, but not a member of parliament. And the color of his dhoti (a kind of traditional dress) is orange, which confirms his monasticism.

              And this mister is not only ordained, he also plays political games ... I don’t believe!

        The uncle's last name was simply used to fill in the necessary information. I would like to recall the words of its former owner: "England has no eternal enemies and friends, there are only the interests of the country." The times when the USSR helped only on the grounds that the country proclaimed a socialist path of development - passed)))) wild capitalism - pure water, drive your money))))

      Y-yes. Given the graters of the United States and China, India and Pakistan, the friendship between China and Pakistan, the United States wants to feed a new and obedient "Israel" the size of India with technology and weapons as opposed to China. At the same time, holding on the other end of the multi-armed scales - Pakistan to counterbalance the growing influence of India in the region. Good old English policy - divide and conquer. No matter how the next orange revolution has begun.

      So these are the problems of India itself in whose orbit it is. Uncle Sam won't let you disobey? Proceeding from the fact that the United States divides all countries into vassals and enemies, Russia and China have today's relations, since for one reason or another Russia and China are not vassals, which the West is trying to turn them into. Naturally, India will see less and less a friend in us, after all, it is in the orbit of the West, where the principle of either with us or against us kicks off the teeth of all the countries representing it.

            Nothing messed up?

            The general tone of the article is as follows.

            The Sino-Russian partnership is currently based on peace at the border, trade, and Chinese funds for Russia to avoid the consequences of US sanctions, as well as a general distrust of American democracy and institutions ...

            Currently, Sino-Russian trade has more than doubled. The Central Bank of Russia has increased its foreign exchange reserves of China from less than 1% to over 15% ...

            The S-400 missile system, built by Russia and sold to India, has Chinese electronics. This put off the US, which was about to sell India advanced military equipment, but put it off because the US cannot risk Chinese or Russian espionage in India on US advanced weapons systems ...

            Therefore, if we have a conflict with China, Russia cannot be trusted, and if we do this, then the United States will not trust us ....
            Russia is no longer, if at all since 1992, India's friend in the sense of confronting India against China ...


            Or do you think that if India is hacked to death with China over Tibet, then we will help the Hindus by striking in Manchuria? laughing

        GDP growth rates are higher than in China. Industry is growing, an agrarian revolution is underway (immediately the first with elements of the second), industries characteristic of the fourth, fifth and sixth economic structures are developing most actively.

        There are also problems:
        - high-speed urbanization (a consequence of that very agrarian revolution, when over 80% of the villagers were redundant). True, not as under the British Empire, there is no mass hunger, but there is an active involvement of hundreds of millions of people in urban life, preparation of their children for life in the modern world;
        - a lot is tied to Indian nationalism and orthodox Hinduism. Well, this is how the unification processes are going. India is a multinational country and religion has been chosen as a method of rapprochement, however, as a result of this, Muslims have turned out to be "strangers" and are under constant pressure with frequent excesses.

            There are very few girls in China, and you can count beautiful ones on one hand. It is very cost-effective to raise a beautiful girl because it can be very profitable to give her away, but this is the last time. Girls are killed mainly in very poor villages and mainly in the north of the country where workers are needed

It turned out that their family suffered greatly during the Bashkir uprisings of the 17-18 centuries and hatred of Russians was cultivated in their family for three centuries.
                And in India, for decades, if not centuries, individual lizards are possible, nailed to belonging to the caste.

        India is a developing country

        And where does it "develop"? Is there more corruption?

        No, the waters of the Ganges are getting dimmer. At work, I was tortured to deal with the pollution of the Volga. But at the very least, poorly we cope.

      India is a developing country. Russia, I will say this, is not quite developing. Why would they be friends?

      You understood. Russia was developing in the 90s, when the Americans patted it on the shoulder, helping to carry out "reforms". They developed so much with American help that we still loose it. Thank you. No more.

        The pace and nature of India's development are comparable only to the USSR in the 30s of the 20th century.
        In the 90s, development, let's face it, did not work for Russia.

    So any non-symbiotic relationship can be defined as "they milk us" - forever someone will be dissatisfied with the imbalances in import / export, which means "oh oh, they put us at a disadvantage ...".
    We definitely had our own gain, and probably a good one, both from the sale of weapons to India, and from joint technological developments such as "Brahmos" - we also probably thought of doing the development of the 5th generation aircraft. MAYBE a little too much on our side - BUT excuse me, this is an actual weapon of today - who will sell it to them and even with technology?
    The United States will push something like that only to a country with strong political loyalty - and then, and in the process they will "take their toll" so that India would not seem a little, and at the same time forgive, goodbye would be the vaunted "neutral" that they cherished and cherished for decades ...
    China, of course, would not sell them anything) Europe could close a number of gaps in the Indian military development - but not all, Europe would vryatli adequately help cover the Indian air defense skies, Europe would hardly offer India an adequate share of participation in the development of the 5th generation aircraft, in general I would not I think that Europe would "milk" less India, they are good at counting money.
    So for all my pretty sad skepticism about our foreign policy and arms sales, India does not understand well its happiness in having access to a large technological udder that is not burdened with "undercover links."

    Indian readers discuss the parliamentarian's article that "Russia is not India's friend"

    Subramanian Swami is another grant-eater (the desire of the states - through such figures - to push military contracts).
    according to Putin's October 23, 2020 statement, "may enter into a military alliance with China."

    Who is stopping India from being closer to Russia - and creating this or that union - or is it we who left the joint project to create a fifth-generation aircraft ?! (now proud Hindus - stand still in this matter - well done)
    Further, Swami writes about the need for a choice, including the option of considering a strategic partnership with the United States and expanding an alliance against China at the expense of Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Indonesia.

    The United States is still that ally - it is someone else's war - will not bring weak dividends!

    While China was building its military-industrial complex, the Military Industrial Song and Dance Ensemble of India poured one project after another down the toilet, running from one supplier to another, dragging out tenders for years and canceling their results. In the final we got the end of the tale about the goldfish.
    China buys the products of the Russian military-industrial complex and says let's go again. The Indians, following their exorbitant ChSV, left the project of the 5th generation fighter, which they framed both Russia, slowing down the development, and themselves, since they could already make their own modification of the fighter. And while some bleat about the engines of the wrong system, others rivet new technology to the full. It's time to launch another Bollywood superblockbuster about a Hindu superhero who knocks down Chinese invisibles in a jump, there will probably be no other way of fighting, especially if the S-400 also turns out to be "unstable" for India.

    Swami is correct in saying that there are forces in India that do not reflect the interests of India itself. And the first in the ranks of such forces is Subramanian Swami. It reflects the interests of those on whose salary it is. And they are clearly not Indians.

    It's high time for Russia to understand that India is NOT a friend of Russia. And even military-technical cooperation with India is NOT PROFITABLE for Russia due to the constant explosions of these macaques. Russia is pouring much more money into this "cooperation" than it gets from it.
    PS: what is interesting, and under the USSR it was exactly the same situation - "traded" with India at a loss! So there is no need to continue these stupid traditions.

    The US desire to pit Russia, India and China against each other has so far failed. But the United States will never give up on this venture. The United States needs a fragmented, weak, conflict-ridden Eurasia and the world as a whole. At the same time, according to the United States, it is from the United States that conflicts should be provoked and managed. It is good that Russia, India and China have enough political wisdom to understand this simple truth. It is bad that many other countries in Eurasia and in the world have not yet understood this and are paying dearly to the United States for this stupidity.

    I agree with those who believe that India wants to grow a counterweight to China. In the 90s they wanted to grow it out of us. I remember well how the liberal media described how terrible China is. In my opinion, because of this, they did not crush us then. Do something like the current Ukraine (which is against us) but with nuclear weapons against China. Looking for an alternative.

    Excellent article, Mr. Swami. India has missed the chance to enter a strategic partnership with Russia. And now, for a long time, she has passed into the cohort of the indifferent. And who should Mr. Swami thank for this? And the faceless Modi. Who could not understand the prospects and benefits. Separate promises from real.
