It started with the changes in Mayanmar – Burma if you please. We had high mightly Hilary Clinton visiting a forgotten Buddhist kingdom – reassuring of saving them from the clutched of Dragon.

Then came the ‘strategic document’ from her boss – Obama – which cited an ally in every one circling China.

US obviously is preparing for the next great game – my guess a ‘pro democracy’ movement in China. Chinese know this but they remain defensive (pretty good at that).

That gets back to us – China relies on its friendship with Pakistan, Iran and North Korea to tide over some stupid overnight efforts by Yankies. Much of the Sino game is our backyard. While Indian mindset remains not so allying with China – wounds of 1962 may be – it might be a time to ponder all over again.

The world is on brink of a major change. US has a major challenge in China and would like us to ally with Washington. China needs friends – they actually have none. And us – well we can’t change our neighbours…

It might just be the right time to reactivate the thought of strategic defense treaty with Russia, China and India.  Come to think – today we can solve almost all our impending (including Aksai Chin) by offering this olive branch. Also it would cut Pakistan at the mercy of US which – post Geronimo cant support them (at least no congress approved aid)

What I am suggesting is our own end game that can solve dispute over Arunachal, Aksai Chin, cut Pakistani ambitions (of Indian downfall), have a strong trading partner (in China), and military support from Moscow.

Of all things – we do know that US works only for one motive – profit. They didn’t go to Europe to fight WW2 till the time they themselves had  a pearl harbor. They can to our region because 9/11 happened. They historically have favoured ‘regimes’ over people and countries. At least our leaders should explore this option… Chinese need us much more than we need them and we can have them at a bargain!
