India must be regretting its life choices in allying with Russia. China and the US are pro-Pakistan and the rest of the west is annoyed at how much they’ve helped Russia to invade Ukraine.

How could they have made different allies?

People don't know but India most likely remembers the US and the West Pakistani involvement in East Pakistan and how USSR prevented an escalation of a genocide in what is today Bangladesh.

China is with Pakistan for the port. India has nothing to offer to change that relationship.
