Reply to comment by PanzerKomadant in German leader seeks Indian support for Russia's isolation by Falls_stuff

Why does their relationship with Russia date back to the Soviet Union? Let’s answer that. The USA supported Pakistan over India many times in the 20th century, so the only ally left was Soviet Union for India.

You have the U.S.A. to thank for it all

You realize that the Soviets were first to establish relations with India? The US attempted to establish good relations as well, it India was already firmly within the Soviet sphere. Pakistan was the 2nd choice.

Because the USA didn’t deem India important enough, or of any note.

The Soviets grabbed their closest allies that’s only natural, the USA chose only western Europeans as of importance due to history and disregarded Asia for the most part
