India will align, but it will not engage in a military alliance at all.
- alephnerd 11mo agoWhat do you mean by alliance? India already has defense agreements with Greece, Cyprus, and France that consist of intel collection, IP transfer (in the case of France), and free naval berthing rights along with dual use ports port development deals in the Mediterranean. Anything beyond that at this stage would be unnecessarily hemming both India as well as France, Greece, and Cyprus' relationships in their backyard.
- anon291 11mo agoThe deals with Greece, Cyprus, France (and the United States btw), are for defense cooperation (i.e. training, supplies, war games, etc). Yeah sure. They'll cooperate. An alliance means mutual defense. India is not going to sign a treaty saying they'll come defend you and you'll come to defend it. That's just never happening.
