The US needs India on good terms, so it’s slowly shifting the narrative to a supposed neutrality, which is why US Vice President JD Vance recently stated that a war between India and Pakistan is “none of our business”. This is a far cry from the threats of the 1970s, as it’s the only way America sees to prevent the formation of a virtually invincible Eurasian monolith. On the other hand, one thing Delhi should consider when reassessing ties with the US is its readiness to ditch Pakistan. Does India need an “ally” like that?
