I have said this many times before. America is no longer what it used to be.
India trusted Trump and his cronies, Musk included, for far too long before their true colours showed.
Trump would not be President today without Elon MuskтАЩs money and his personal campaign on Twitter.
Musk spent close to $290 million and then claimed the election could not have been won without him. That influence was real.
When the relationship with Trump soured, Musk posted that Trump is in the Epstein files and that this was why they had not been released. What kind of person makes someone President while knowing what those files contain?
Musk is a great technocrat and entrepreneur.
That does not excuse this.
Is тАЬDear Prime Minister AmbaniтАЭ how you address the worldтАЩs largest democracy and a sovereign nation?
He accuses Ambani of being an oligarch. By that standard, Musk is one too.
Which party we support or oppose does not matter. In a democracy we all have our preferences. When it comes to Indian sovereignty, we are one nation.
America wants India to follow its tantrums. Obey, and do not argue.
It does not like India having an independent view or strategy.
India wants to be treated as an equal.
America wants India as a vassal.
That is why the elites in the American state have turned hostile towards India.
They already regret how far China has risen. They do not want India to reach that point.
In the coming years America will do what it can to harm IndiaтАЩs interests.
We need to face this together as a nation. Very tough times ahead.

"80 years after independence, we are still talking about pollution, adulterated food, pot-holed roads, vote theft, etc.
When are we going to talk about progressive things and innovation?
Look at where China has reached, America has reached.
India has 15-20 years to become a developed nation after which our population will start aging, and we will remain a poor nation."

India the Perennial Soft State
The decision to let American covert operative Matthew VanDyke and six Ukrainian drone specialists quietly leave India is more than an isolated legal reversal. It belongs to a long and uncomfortable tradition in which New Delhi invokes its tough criminal laws and then retreats when geopolitical pressure builds up.
VanDyke, a veteran of covert wars in the Middle East and Ukraine, was arrested in March alongside six military-trained Ukrainian partners. According to Indian court filings, the group belonged to a larger international network that smuggled drones into India before routing them onward to Myanmar. The National Investigation Agency initially invoked the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, IndiaтАЩs premier anti-terrorism statute.
Then came the dramatic climbdown. After U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio personally raised VanDykeтАЩs detention with New Delhi, the NIA dropped the UAPA charges. VanDyke and all six Ukrainians have now been released on bail and permitted to return home.
The episode recalls a familiar pattern. From the Bhopal gas disaster and the Purulia arms-drop affair to the Enrica Lexie Italian-marines case and Ottavio QuattrocchiтАЩs escape in the Bofors scandal, India has repeatedly seen high-profile criminal proceedings against foreign nationals or entities diluted, abandoned or rendered inconsequential under diplomatic or strategic pressure.
Different cases, different Indian governments, but the same question endures: What makes India such a soft state that it so often fails to enforce accountability when powerful foreign interests are involved?
Speculation and claims that the MDR will be charged on UPI transactions are completely false, baseless, and misleading.
Such baseless and sensation-creating speculations cause needless uncertainty, fear and suspicion among our citizens.
The Government remains fully committed to promoting digital payments via UPI.
