KEY POINTS
· The rise of China and the consequent geopolitical churn in Asia, have raised India’s stakes in US-Russia relations.
· Moscow also roped in Beijing to build a new coalition the RIC to promote a multipolar world that would limit the dangers of American hyperpower.
· India’s fears of the unipolar moment turned out to be overblown and Delhi’s ties with Washington began to see rapid improvement since 2000.
· Russia presented several proposals for a new European security architecture.
· The US, which is now focused on the China challenge, appears interested in easing the conflict with Russia. Despite its extraordinary military resources, Washington can’t afford to fight in both Asia (with China) and Europe (with Russia).
· While coping with the complex dynamic of Russia’s relations with the West has been an enduring element of independent India’s foreign policy.
· Delhi can’t influence the new effort to build a mutually acceptable security order in Europe, but it can welcome and support it.
· Delhi knows that stabilising the Asian balance of power will be difficult without a measure of US-Russian cooperation in Europe.
· If Moscow at odds with the West in the last two decades deepens its current close alignment with Beijing, it will be a lot harder to prevent Chinese dominance over Asia.
