Russia once again "shot" India's heart like Cupid's arrow, and bluntly expressed its support for India's "normalization", and the third brother was overjoyed!According to the Global Times, on December 27, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar held a meeting in Moscow. After the meeting, Lavrov once again said at a press conference that Russia supports India's membership in the UN Security Council. This time, Russia offered to support India's entry into the UN Security Council. Jaishankar was very happy about this and said a bunch of ironclad things about the relations between Russia and India.
We know that India has an obsession with "normalization", and it believes that as long as it can "normalize", it is a sign that a country has stepped into a world power, and for this reason, India has been working hard in this regard. Earlier, when Biden arrived in India to attend the G20 summit, he clearly expressed his support for India to become one of the permanent members of the UN Security Council. According to the current point of view, among the five permanent members of the United Nations, four of them have basically been dealt with by India, after all, India has bought so many ** for them Britain and France before, how much will it give some face, and now China is left with no clear statement. In fact, the promises of these countries are all tinged with interests, more like a "blank check", giving a good person card, because they know that even if they pass, as long as China does not support it, India's "dream of becoming a strong country" will still be in vain, it is better to simply sell personal favors to India, and they can also deceive the third brother to buy something. Since the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the signs of the United States and Russia pulling India together have become more and more obvious, and Russia's energy has been sanctioned by the United States and Western countries, and sales have been directly cut off, so Putin has looked eastward. A few days ago, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Novak said that almost all of Russia's oil exports this year were shipped to China and India, and exports to these two countries accounted for almost 90% of Russia's total oil exports, while exports to Europe fell sharply from 40%-45% to 4%-5%. India's abacus is also very accurate, the oil imported from Russia, changed to OEM, and then resold to European countries, making a lot of money.
Not to mention the United States, the Asia-Pacific strategy and the Indo-Pacific strategy, which have been talked about for so long, require India's cooperation to build this big drama, although India does not dare to snub it. However, India should not be too happy, according to the practice of the United Nations, there are a total of 15 members of the Security Council, including five permanent members, including China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
If you want to be elected as a permanent member, you must get nine votes in favor, and there must be no negative votes from the five permanent members. It is reported that since 2005, India has applied for "normalization" five times, has been defeated repeatedly, and has been vetoed by member states in turn
There is another thing that Russia should not make concessions, and that is to settle Russian oil in rubles, after all, when Russia finds that it has a large amount of rupees that are useless, it will not be easily fooled a second time.
