Indian Politician: New Delhi Will Not Yield to US Pressure, Will Restart the "Russia-India-China" Mechanism

Savio Rodrigues, a member of India's ruling BJP party, stated that India's foreign policy under Prime Minister Narendra Modi is "based on national interests, not external pressure."

Rodrigues emphasized: "The message to the United States is clear: India is not a transactional player, but a civilizational power. When Washington imposes tariff barriers, India is diversifying its partnerships. Reaching a $100 billion trade volume with Russia is a strategic declaration of India's independence in energy and defense. If the US wishes to cooperate with a strong India, it should do so with integrity rather than resorting to sanctions."

Regarding the possibility of restarting the "Russia-India-China" mechanism, this politician pointed out: "Sujeet's remarks after the Chinese Foreign Minister's visit to India reflect diplomatic maturity. Despite unresolved border disputes with China, economic pragmatism cannot be ignored."

"The Russia-India-China" mechanism has the potential to become a stable platform in Eurasia and enhance India's role as a mediator. However, India will only participate in this mechanism from a position of strength."
