neutrality is judged pretty severely by history, and is often considered as cooperating with the aggressor. I'd be very cautious if i were india..

Now, the hypocrisy is that europe is probably happy India is buying ressources from russia, and then sell them back to them, since they don't really have alternatives.

Does anyone hold it against Sweden and Switzerland that they sat out WW II? I've read, over the years, a complaint or two about particular policies, but I don't think they really affected the countries' image.

Nor do I see a compelling reason for India to align with either side.
