Some articles have varying degrees of truth/accuracy on different points made, IMHO.

Trump is trying to find leverage wherever he can: Sanctions, arms and money to Ukraine, nuclear counter pressure, advertising the peace talks and creating an expectation of a deal...

Trump is setting the stage (creating a cost if there is no positive outcome) for the peace talks in Alaska. At the peace talks he’s also going to have a list of presents for Russia, if they’re not naughty.

India and Pakistan have been at odds for a long time.
Back in the day, the US picked Pakistan to be our ally, because they are next to Afghanistan.
India became Russia's ally.
I think we made the wrong choice.

Do remember, India defeated the British Empire, the largest Empire at the time.

President Trump had better tread lightly. Dictating to a country what they can and cannot buy is wrong….

This article fundamentally miscasts President Trumps strategy with Russia and India.

At the end of the day, the most likely outcome of. Trump's initiatives is going to a closer alliance with both India and Russia as a balance against Chinese aggression.
