    In 10 years the West would probably consider India to be too powerful and needs to be contained just like China is today. This may eventually push India to form a close alliance with China and Russia (assuming those two hasn’t collapsed) and the West will have a much bigger problem to deal with than the China Russia alliance today. This is very similar to how China was used as a counterweight to the Soviets during the cold war, and now is forced to ally with Russia to counter western containment measures.

      There’s already a group comprised of these countries from more than 10 years ago now: BRICS. It was somehow pretty irrelevant for many years, but they’ve been actively working to gain allies, many of which are oil-rich countries.
