Russia and China are actively seeking to revive the long-dormant Russia-India-China (RIC) trilateral grouping, positioning it as a counterweight in the shifting global order.
China has publicly backed Russia's initiative, emphasizing the potential for enhanced regional and global stability. However, India remains cautious and non-committal, stating that any revival of the RIC framework depends on 'mutual convenience' and has not agreed to any meetings yet. India's hesitancy is influenced by ongoing tensions with China and its strategic ties with the US, making it wary of being drawn into a bloc that could complicate its foreign policy balancing act.
The future of the RIC troika remains uncertain as India weighs its options amid intensifying geopolitical competition.
