a few ago I was hired by the Indian government to secure 15% of the world's tungsten supply. They claimed it was for tungsten light bulbs!

I said "I don't want to offend, but if I was a betting man I would put my money on china. So what is your geopolitical strategy? Partner with the US?"
The response was no, not initially. Rather wait for Russia to commit to us and then work with the US as Russia is our military ally and Russia may not back us if the US was there.
They also said "Russia is a conservative christian place and would be reluctant to lose lives to protect brown people"
Perhaps that last comment may explain the closer to alignment to the US. What is certain is big tectonic plates are shifting.
