In addition to supporting India's "normalization," Russia also said it would further expand cooperation with India.

Russia's support for India's "normalization" has attracted widespread attention, with some interpreting it as a "stab in the back" by Russia against China. However, state-to-state relations are not simply black and white, and are often fraught with complex factors.
