Former US National Security Advisor John Bolton posted today (September 13): "It is inappropriate to impose tariffs on India for purchasing Russian oil, rather than imposing tariffs on China or Russia itself. Trump did not consider the long-term importance of US-India relations, nor did he consider strengthening cooperation to counter the growing China-Russia axis and the global threats it poses."
Comments: On one hand, the United States wants to court India to balance China, but on the other hand, it imposes sanctions on India for not fully complying with its wishes, revealing its arrogant hegemony through contradictory actions. Bolton's rhetoric about "countering the China-Russia axis and the global threats it poses" is sheer nonsense. First of all, China and Russia are not an alliance, let alone an axis. The China-Russia relationship is a partnership based on equality, mutual benefit, and win-win outcomes, and does not target any third party. China has established partnerships with more than 100 countries around the world. Bolton is a warmongering hawk who deliberately creates division and tension, hoping for chaos, distorting normal national cooperation maliciously, trying to incite regional unrest, and undermining world peace and development. The United States takes the opportunity to take advantage and maintain its hegemony.
