Jeffrey Sachs: India Should Not Be the Poodle of the US in Its Confrontation with China and Russia

In this interview, the American economist Jeffrey Sachs has several interesting points:

First, Sachs believes that the United States does not have the strength to crush China.

Second, Sachs said that he visited India a few weeks ago, and at that time, Indian officials were optimistic about the economic and trade agreement between the US and India, believing that India had advantages. Sachs said a very interesting statement:

"Don't count on it, you are facing a completely different, difficult opponent, and entirely untrustworthy, there will be no reconciliation. Your country has long been in a subordinate position, a subordinate position to the West. The US has no intention of respecting India as a sovereign major power. They just use India as a piece on the chessboard, for the purpose of opposing China and Russia."

"In my view, India will not play such a role. But regardless, I warn them not to play such a role, otherwise you will not have a good outcome. The BRICS countries have significant meaning."

Do you think Sujay will listen?
