Literally a few minutes ago, the pakistani parliament deposed Imran Khan as prime minister of Pakistan. This comes after the Supreme Court, under pressure from the US and the pakistani military (which has a long history of supporting US coups), repealed the convocation of elections by the president and ignored the blatant evidence of US interference in this vote of no confidence (politicians from Khans party were bribed to vote against him, also the US literally sent Khan a letter threatening a vote of no confidence if he didnt sanction Russia). The US just did a coup at Chinas doorstep. This isnt good.

    Same, i was so happy when it seemed like Khan had beaten the US backed putschists. This just ruined my saturday night. I doubt India will condemn this, Khan supported the rights of muslims in India and opposed the military occupation of Kashmir by India. Modi, being the islamophobe indian chauvinist he is, will never praise someone like Khan.

      I think it would be less about praising him and more about keeping the region stable. The indian goverment is getting tired of seeing the US trying to harm their relationship with Russia, if pakistan gets couped by the US for not being against Russia, india will feel like their own goverment is menaced. An nuclear power getting couped by the US is something very serious, more then Modi’s infantile religious delusions.

      Or the Indian goverment will side with the US in fear of getting couped, or they will bury their rivalry with China and their anti-muslin actions so they can unite against the US opression.

        I mean, i hope what you say happens but im not so sure. Modi plays both sides according to his interests. He is being proRussia now but thats because russian gas and oil are cheap plus India and Russia have had good relations since independence. However when its about China Modi has no problem siding with the US. For example, Modi is allowing the US to use indian territory to arm, fund and train the burmese proUS terrorists, actively destabilizing Burma/Myanmar and disrupting the BRI. If he really wanted stability he would support the military junta like China does instead of these terrorists.

          I think we should put more hope on the Russian, Iranian, Chinese, Afghanistan, and other asian countries in the region who have some self respect and will not take this menace to the independence of the region lightly.
