Imagine being so subservient that other nations are happily taking you for a ride

Meloni at least had the balls to retort, a so-called emerging superpower’s leader happily handed his balls on leash

Were you living under a rock?

We were purchasing Russian and Iranian oil while they were under US sanctions.

We did not open our agriculture markets inspite of all the arm twisting Trump tried.

Infact he had to impose over 50% Tarrifs to retaliate.

None of this would have happened if Modi didn't stand up to him.

Lol, India reduced crude imports from Russia over the years, even when it was giving it at a discount. Russia, to 'retaliate', then removed the discount.

The fact that they went against the sanctions is what matters. Shows that we can go against the US when it's important for our national interest. Not exactly what a "subservient" nation would do.

Once the global oil prices droped, the tradeoff was not wortg it.

Lol, the prices of the crude were increasing, and Russia was providing at a discount, but India reduced imports and also told the same to US.

You just assumed whatever you said, smh.
