Bloomberg today exposed its worries about the Indian Prime Minister’s trip to Moscow. The article by the above title starts off saying “For Washington, isolating Vladimir Putin just keeps getting harder.” The strong relationship between the two nations is a “bitter pill for Washington to swallow.”
Bloomberg goes on to describe the pains the U.S. has gone through to weave India into its orbit: “U.S. diplomats have expended great effort in cultivating India as a bulwark against China. They have steered investment flows, encouraged technology sharing and boosted defense cooperation with New Delhi.”
Taken together with other dramatic developments of the past days, this article is illustrative of the growing frenzy in Washington and London about their failure to keep the world under their thumb.
