India wants to put no skin in the game but wants to be considered the centrepiece in the game..... that it offers no value toAptly said....
The most important part of this pact is the guts shown by both Pak and the KSA. I have to give credit to MBS. The rest are all details......
You can make whatever value judgement you wish, but no one can deny that Pakistan commits and sacrifices on its strategic decision
That sets a low bar to beat, and it's all India's fault for its perception of value, it just doesn't want to contribute or sacrifice
It is actually scandalous that the Americans took so long to come to this conclusion, as they have dithered for too long and in fact it's allowed China an easier path to rise
You fundamentally cannot incentivize the Indians to fight China, when the entire national narrative and psyche is geared towards Pakistan. The Americans should have seen this long ago
