    India Quad Archive

    In my opinion, he's the one who scuttled the first Quad and chose to stand with China, But more recently, he has made a 180-degree turn on his policy and has quickly become one of Australia's most prominent 'China hawks'. Just saying...I think this is a guy who loves to sail with the wind.

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    Providing aid (either side) is more about appearing to 3rd parties as the innocent victim who never instigates conflict and as being ever ready for peaceful cooperation and that the other side is solely responsible for the aggressive designs & transgressions that are creating the rift.
