Hindi Chini Bhai Bhai

Our Prime Minister, Mr. Manmohan Singh, will be visiting China shortly. When China had voted against India in the recent nuclear deal, inspite of their earlier assurances to support India, what could be the necessity for our Prime Minister to visit that country, is beyond my understanding. I think it is not only a very bad foreign policy, but also a wrong one. It will give China the upper hand. They'll have the impression, and undoubtedly a correct one, that India is coming to woo them.
A team of high level defence personnel will be accompanying the Prime Minister to arrange for a joint military exercise to be held in India. Another big blunder. A very very big bl under. Have we forgotten 1962 so quickly ? Our the then Prime Minister, Shri Jawaharlal Nehru, very cordially invited the then Chinese Premier Chou en Lai, to India under the Pancha Shil Agreement, and took him around our arm factories to show him that we were not manufacturing any sophisticated weapons. I was a small kid then, but I still remember the picture printed in a Kolkata daily, showing Chou en Lai tiffin carriers being manufactured in our Cossipore Gun & Shell Factory, instead of arms, just to show how peace loving India was. Mr. Chou en Lai noted all these foolish activities of India, and the moment he returned to his country, China pounced on India and gave a resounding hammering. China still occupies a good portion of our country in the North East, which they're refusing to return. Not only that, China has claimed Arunachal Pradesh as their own.
Inviting Chinese defence personnel for joint military exercise means trouble. They'll gather all information regarding our defence installations. And once they go back, they'll draw out strategies to snuff out those installations, when they are ready to attack. I don't trust China. They never mean what they say. They're the most untrustworty nation. The U.S.A. is also untrustworthy, but they're a bit blunt. They talk big and act like the boss of the world. Whereas, China is extremely shrewd, they act silently. So, dear Prime Minister, please beware.

Yes, both China and Pakistan cannot be trusted.
We are planning bring oil and gas from Iran to India through Pakistan.
What a foolish thing?
We will be at the mercy of Pakistan and they can stop our supplies anytime there is war.
Have we forgotten the 1971 war when Pakistan stopped over flight over their country for our planes going to Europe. Of course, they faced the consequence when we stopped overflights to Bangladesh.
Pakistan lost the war and the wound is still festering which they are trying to take out in Kashmir.
A leopard just cannot change its spots.
China and Pakistan can never be trusted.
