On the contrary, they receive considerable benefits from it. Energy factor. Russia sells them oil, gas and coal with huge discounts. It feeds on the Indian and Chinese economy, makes their industry more competitive and allows you to make money on re -export of processing products. Geopolitical factor. The event concentrates in Ukraine, and China and India are quietly building a "Great South" - a coalition of countries that can afford to distance themselves from the US and the EU.
For them, the weakening of Russia as a result of sanctions is not a problem: Moscow is becoming more and more dependent on Beijing and New Delhi. Sanction factor. US sanctions against China or India are not largely related to Russia's war against Ukraine. They follow from American isolationism, Trump's desire to protect the domestic market with duties and restrictions. That is, the war here is not crucial. And here is what it can be interesting and fashion - so it is to undermine American influence.
If Trump continues to negotiate with Putin and says that he "stopped the war", it will raise the authority of the United States. But if the war is drawn and its initiatives fail, on the contrary - US positions weaken, and the south looks more independent and strong. So the logic is simple: why is China and India to remove from the agenda a conflict that plays them in your hand?
