Don’t Patronize Us’, India Tells EU Official by Teazer4(m): 4:00pm On May 06, 2022
India has abstained for numerous UN General Assembly resolutions on the conflict

India's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, TS Tirumurti, has accused the Netherlands of “patronizing” his country after the Dutch ambassador to the UK publicly scolded New Delhi for abstaining on UN General Assembly resolutions on the war in Ukraine.

"Kindly don't patronise us, Ambassador. We know what to do," Tirumurti wrote in a tweet to Dutch envoy Karel van Oosterom on Thursday.

Tirumurti’s tweet came in response to van Oosterom’s (now-deleted) warning that India “should not have abstained” from votes pertaining to Russia and the war in Ukraine and that it should “respect the UN Charter.”

Despite repeated calls and pressure to join the West in helping to isolate Russia over the Ukraine war, New Delhi has been reluctant to cut ties with Moscow.


India has abstained on multiple votes and resolutions at the UN General Assembly this year, including a vote moved by the US in April to suspend Russia from the UN Human Rights Council over accusations of the killing of civilians.

The Asian giant also abstained from a vote brought by Ukraine and its backers in March, condemning Russia over the humanitarian situation in the country, saying then that the focus should be on the cessation of hostilities.

In a statement delivered Wednesday at the UN Security Council meeting on Ukraine, Tirumurti reiterated India's position that "pursuing the path of dialogue and diplomacy" is the "only way out" of the crisis.

"India remains on the side of peace and therefore believes that there will be no winning side in this conflict[i] and, while those impacted by this conflict will continue to suffer, diplomacy will be a lasting casualty[/i],” he said.

The South Asian nation has a strong trading relationship with Russia, receiving arms from Moscow in previous agreements between the two sides. It even deemed the current situation an opportunity to broaden cooperation. The country boosted oil purchases from Russia recently, despite pressure from Washington.

Narendra Modi should strengthen the relationship between India and the West most especially the US because after this war, the US will emerge powerfully while using NATO as a tool to bend Russia and China to their taste.Then, if India tries to asslick us,we will snub them.

Like the bombing at train station That story disappeared from the news as soon as serial number from the missile was shown on Italian tv and proven to belong to Ukraine. Another propaganda war led by US to protect it’s interests in the money laundering centre....

This war has taught me that if the West are calling you a hero, just note that you are a real buffoon. But if they are calling you a dictator or an autocrat, just note that you are serving the interest of your people not the interest of the West.

India should do what helps them.

During 1998 when India conducted second series of Nuclear tests, US lead western world group together and sanctioned India. Tech Transfers was stopped, mutual cooperation between universities and industries was stopped.
Result:
(1) The very same decade of 2000s saw the Indian economic growth in double digits and boom was so rapid that instead of seeking money it started its credit lines to various countries. This was a slap on the USA`s and western world`s face.

(2) Due to restrictions Russia had to refuse the supply of Cryogenic engine (back then only 3 countries had that technology). Indian went to drawing board and started from scratch and in result they developed their first CRYOGENIC ENGINE VIKAS that too with higher thrust to weigh ratio then NASA had by that time. Sanctions delayed their space programs but they developed those things and it was an another slap on the USA`s and western world`s face.

So Indians understands this USA and west can not do nothing to them, they tried and failed miserably. That is why you are seeing western leaders rushing to India to court but India has given a green light to its petrochemical companies to buy more and more Russian Oil in INR.

They are not like our mumu countries, they are real deal and giant one.
