Russia and China are actively seeking to revive the long-dormant Russia-India-China (RIC) trilateral bloc, positioning it as a counterweight in a shifting global order.
China has publicly supported Russia's initiative, emphasizing the potential benefits for regional and global stability. However, India remains cautious and non-committal, stating that any revival of the RIC framework depends on 'mutual convenience' and has not agreed to any meetings yet. India's hesitancy is influenced by ongoing tensions with China and its strategic ties with the US and other groupings like the Quad.
The situation highlights India's delicate balancing act between major powers amid rising geopolitical competition.
