Russia and China are actively seeking to revive the long-dormant Russia-India-China (RIC) trilateral alliance, positioning it as a counterbalance in shifting global geopolitics. China has publicly backed Russia's proposal, 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. The move comes amid rising tensions with the West and efforts by Russia and China to diversify their diplomatic partnerships. India's hesitancy reflects its complex balancing act between deepening ties with the US and maintaining strategic autonomy with Russia and China.
