Reply to comment by DeMalgamnated in German leader seeks Indian support for Russia's isolation by Falls_stuff
By india renouncing russia and the benefits that russia brings to the country, the war WILL spill over to india.
I think India does care about people dying and all that, but why would they get involved and then have another billion+ people affected? Indians affected.
Modi is right to keep neutral.

Reply to comment by AltNationReality in Kremlin says it is concerned by situation in breakaway Moldovan region by nycboots
They are referring to Transnistria which is a breakaway region WITHIN Moldova that is under UN sanctioned Russian military control. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transnistria.
The Russians are saying that Ukraine is planning an attack on the area, which is effectively an attack on Moldova, but the Moldovan government has just been 'rearranged' and the new Moldovan leaders seems fine with Ukraine entering the area.
The Russians aren't going to attack Transnistria, they already control it, BUT if what the Russians are saying is true and Ukraine attacks, and Modova doesn't intervene, Russia might attack Moldova.
This is a serious escalation either way, because it is pulling more countries into the conflict.
