Russia and China are actively seeking to revive the long-dormant Russia-India-China (RIC) trilateral framework, positioning it as a key platform for regional and global stability amid shifting geopolitical alliances.
China has publicly backed Russia's proposal, emphasizing the benefits of trilateral cooperation, while India has responded cautiously, stating that any revival must be based on 'mutual convenience.' The RIC mechanism has been largely inactive in recent years due to global events and strained India-China relations. Experts note that India is weighing its options carefully, balancing its ties with the US and other Western partners against the potential advantages of diversified diplomacy.
The outcome remains uncertain, as India has not yet committed to any new RIC meetings despite mounting pressure from Moscow and Beijing.
