India is the largest democracy in Asia, Trump should use a little more common sense when dealing with them.
Have you ever dealt with Indians? It’s not fun at all. But remember negotiation start at no. Also, this is not what so-called friends do. India is not our friend.
Have you ever interacted with Indians in business? Going to guess not. Arrogant, inflexible, but will be polite to you while doing the opposite after the conversation is over, they have little respect for women in the culture, will tend to seek out anyone who can give them the answer that they want. Will look to get the most favorable outcome while giving up the least. This is true especially when seeking promotions, compensation etc.
I’ve basically just described Modi’s approach to you. He is outwardly friendly to the U.S. while courting the best deal anyone can give him, in this case Russian oil. It could be China, the U.S. Europe, he won’t care, while he is also happy to flood the U.S. with Indians via the H-1B program while they close markets and access to us. They will act aggrieved while being arrogant and pretentious about it and will dig in on this as long as they can. They are not our friends.
Choked on my dinner when I read that. They're thieves, liars, and smelly slobs.
No, it’s the biggest shithole on earth.
