      I hate modi but here he is right, do whats best for your people, do not care about proxy wars between imperial powers.

        that’s a dangerous strategy to employ, one oft used by populists eg Donald Trump, Putin, Modi etal and is the strategy colonial powers used.

        What’s “best” for your people this year might end up making it worse for decades to come and inevitably lead to an isolated and nationalistic country reviled by the rest of the world with all sorts of blowback eg Russia and the US suffer this now, making enemies of most of the rest of the world.
