Russia and China are actively seeking to revive the long-dormant Russia-India-China (RIC) trilateral framework, positioning it as a potential counterweight in shifting global geopolitics.
China has publicly backed Russia's initiative, emphasizing the bloc's value for regional and global stability. However, India remains cautious and non-committal, citing the need for 'mutual convenience' and ongoing concerns about its relationships with both China and the US. The RIC mechanism has been largely inactive due to recent geopolitical tensions and the pandemic, and India's hesitancy reflects its desire to balance ties with multiple global powers.
The outcome of these revival efforts could reshape diplomatic alignments in Eurasia and beyond.
