Recently, Russia has issued a request for assistance to India, requiring it to provide spare parts for cars, planes and trains. At present, Russia is restricted by international sanctions on in these areas, and many industries are already difficult to operate. According to Reuters , there are more than 500 categories in the list of help requests provided by Russia to India.
Russia's move still needs to be viewed rationally. It's not that Russia is really going to collapse. Some time ago, the official price of ruble was less than 1/10 of the actual purchasing power, and India was tough to use rupee to trade. Now, Russia has no choice but to accept it in order to promote the export of crude oil, and this move can be said to kill two birds with one stone. In fact, it is just bartering. At this stage, the same is true for settlement in RMB. India bought oil with rupee. Russia collected rupee and had no place to spend it. Don’t buy some Indian things. Isn’t it just waste paper?
Indian Xiaojiu also fought: I bought you as much oil as I bought you with the rupees, you have to buy me back with the rupees, otherwise it would be his turn to buy them in India. The China-Russia freight train has been in operation for many years. Russia's coal, grain, soybeans, oil and wood are continuously sailing to China. China's home appliances, light industrial products, clothing, and department stores are flowing to Russia to achieve complementarity! Why buy from India? Is it a test of the Modi government's position?
Russia is indeed too difficult. One country cannot help the entire European and American countries, and other countries can impose sanctions if they help. They can beat Russia in groups, but Russia can only play singles. Now only India can eat Western countries In non-Western countries, there is no way to deal with India. The only market is in rapid development, and everything India does is unimpeded. It’s not that we don’t want to support Russia, but that the risks are too high. First of all, doing business with Russia will face large-scale international sanctions, and no company will take this risk. Secondly, how to trade money? The US dollar cannot be used. Russia pays you rubles. Do you want it? Third, how to transport goods? It is impossible to transport them by sea due to international sanctions. India and Russia have no land routes. The air freight costs are too high. What should I do? It’s not that I don’t buy them from China. international trade requires trade balance, otherwise business will not be sustainable. India’s trade with Russia has a huge deficit. Russia gives India some orders to balance trade.
Of course, Russia is still full of vigilance towards us, which is understandable. After all, they are the country with the most contact with our land area. Anyone who encounters such a giant neighbor will be involuntarily afraid. Many people asked with their mouths wide open, why didn’t they ask China for help? Do they think it’s as simple as helping each other between countries? To help, you must first protect yourself, and secondly, you must have a wise eye and look at the international situation! If you take a step back, even if you want to help with your lips and teeth, you still have to talk about methods, right?
is actually not just Russia. Any country adjacent to us is a little afraid of us, such as Vietnam, South Korea, Japan and Philippines . There is no way, our size is there, and we cannot hide it. Many people look down on India, and from this we can see the scale of India's industrial scale. The scale of the Indian plateau is second only to China and the United States. This is a side-by-side station for the Lai India launch. I think increasing India-Russia trade is a good thing. It may reduce the pressure on China. The US-India friction caused by India-Russia trade will embarrass EU .
