Putin's visit to India: India's choice - Can China, Russia, and India team up to reshape the Eurasian landscape?

Putin's visit to India fully demonstrates the complexity and importance of the China-Russia-India triangular relationship.

From the Russian side, there is a deep understanding of its role in Sino-Indian relations. It knows that the Sino-Indian contradictions are not simple issues, and external forces find it difficult to resolve them easily, so it chooses not to intervene, avoiding any impact on its strategic partnerships with both China and India. At the same time, Russia actively promotes cooperation among China, Russia, and India, based on its own strategic interests. In the context of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and Western sanctions, Russia needs to stabilize the situation on the Eurasian continent, and cooperation with China and India can provide it with broader strategic space.

For China, it has always maintained an open and cooperative attitude, never refusing to cooperate with India. The potential for cooperation among China, Russia, and India is enormous, combining China's demographic advantage, Russia's resource advantage, and India's growth potential.

The current world situation is complex and changeable, with the United States attempting to create divisions, while China, Russia, and India have more reason to unite. Putin's visit to India is an early arrangement for the future Eurasian landscape. If India can recognize the situation, set aside ideological biases, break free from the Western narrative framework, and move towards a truly 'mature great power strategy', cooperating hand in hand with China and Russia, it will be able to achieve a more stable, faster, and more genuine position in international affairs, and the region can also avoid being 'sliced' by the West again.
