The leaders of India and Kazakhstan recently made unusually direct remarks to the Russian president about ending the war with the Ukraine
Good news! However, will this have an impact on Putin the Terrible?
Will the Russian oligarchs be impressed?
Hopefully, the domestic and international pressure on the megalomaniac and war criminal Putin the Terrible is mounting!
"At a heavily scripted [SCO] summit in Central Asia recently [end of August], Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi appeared to break from the choreography momentarily to chastise President Vladimir Putin of Russia, a country that has been a close partner of New Delhi since the Soviet era.
It was time “to move on from an endless war to an end of war,” he told an expressionless Putin, seated next to him in an ornate reception room at the summit in Kyrgyzstan. ..."
"In a face-to-face meeting, Kazakh President Qasym-Zhomart Toqaev told Vladimir Putin that it was time to freeze Russia's war in Ukraine. The appeal to the Russian leader came at a summit in Omsk on July 25. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov later said "a freeze as such is impossible," adding, "The main condition is that we must achieve our goals." Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha welcomed the Kazakh leader's efforts calling it "a realistic, timely, and wise message." ..."

Modi’s visit: Australia, India seek to gain strength from each other
Good news! India, a rising superpower!
"... Probably the most striking part is the undertaking ‘to consult on defence-related developments in the Indo-Pacific that affect shared interests.’ This would have been unthinkable between Australia and India even a few years ago. ...
A second remarkable outcome was in the area of civil nuclear energy and the sale of uranium to India as part of broader energy-security cooperation.
Uranium sale to India has a long and complicated history, because India was usually rejected as a buyer because of its refraining from signing the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty. India, on the other hand, has repeatedly argued with the justification that, even though it has not been a party to the NPT, it has abided by the treaty’s principles better than the signatories have. This used to be a source of much frustration in India because Australia was selling uranium to China even though it had violated its NPT and Nuclear Suppliers Group commitments. ..."
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s three-day visit to Australia last week delivered substantial outcomes, especially in the defence and security sector.

What Could a Reciprocal Defense Procurement Agreement Do for U.S.-India Ties?
Good news!
Caveat: I did not read the entire long article.
"... It is also equally important to note that India already signed a Security of Supply Arrangement (SOSA) with the United States in August 2024. The SOSA, in short, provides a means for India and the United States to request priority delivery of certain defense items from each other.
How it differs from an RDPA is that a SOSA is non-binding and, accordingly, neither country is obligated to fulfil requests made under it to the other.
Additionally, an RDPA, unlike the SOSA, would make India a “qualifying country” under the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and this certification would smooth out additional compliance that Indian firms may need to sell to the U.S. industrial base.
Lastly, an RDPA would bring Indian vendors up to par with their counterparts in the United States when selling to the U.S. DoD and vice versa, subject, of course, to each country’s national laws and sourcing rules. This is aligned with the U.S.-India joint statement issued in February 2025, in which both sides agreed to design a new ten-year framework for the U.S.-India major defense partnership for the twenty-first century, with an RDP agreement. ...
India’s Operation Sindoor, a swift five-day military operation launched to strike at Pakistan’s terror camps and its key defense installations, showcased India’s growing weapons arsenal and military prowess, and was fairly well-received. Even the most hard-headed detractors of India’s defense preparedness concede that India’s defense missile system, including the Akashteer drone systems and the Brahmos missile system, performed very well. Reports have emerged about interest from Vietnam and Indonesia in India’s arms exports, which have also surged to an all-time high, with its latest defense exports being reported at approximately $2.75 billion. ..."
