Prof. John Mearsheimer: India🇮🇳 and China🇨🇳 DO NOT want war, but India is very concerned about the Chinese military build-up in the Himalayas 'The Indian elites do not need the West to tell them how to think about what their interests are. The Indian elites are fully capable of figuring out what's in their national interest. And the fact is that most Indians feel that the boundaries should be drawn in a place that reflects what India thinks are the proper boundaries, and the same thing is true on the Chinese side. The Indians and the Chinese want to avoid a war, for sure, and let's hope that they do. But it's important to understand that, from India's point of view, as they watch the Chinese building up their military forces up in the Himalayas, they have good cause to be concerned.' Prof. John Mearsheimer, one of the world's most respected realist International Relations scholars on the latest episode of New Order. Watch the full interview in the quoted post below. 👇

But problem is that Indian ruling elites have sold their soul to the US ruling elites. India is literally a vassal state of the US.

Every time I listen to John Mearsheimer I feel like I'm being educated. And he has the track record to justify my attention.

This is a no brainer. It is impossible to have war across the Himalayas. The altitude is simply too high and terrain to barren. It's just border ego issue for both side.
