It is always a good idea to have friendly relations with everybody especially the neighbors.  What Russia and China are doing  is running parallel to this concept.  However, one ought  not to forget the basics of developing friendly relationship which needs a sincere willingness, determination and eagerness to achieve that goal.  India has been striving to accomplish this objective since 1947, but due to lack of sincere initiatives from Pakistan always derailed the train from the track.  What happened in Ufa, Russia sounds historical, but this writer has some apprehension.  Both Russia and China, especially China wants to see improvement of relationship between India and Pakistan to establish peace in the region.  How about improving relationship between India and China?  China has been occupying thousands and thousands of miles Indian territory since 1962 which is a major stumbling block.  This unauthorized occupation of land is an apple of discord between India and China.  This insatiated territorial ambition of China does not end here, it is still asking India to get out of Arunachal Pradesh also because China treats that territory of India as the southern part of Tibet which again is an unauthorized occupation of China.   Is China willing to go back to the pre-1962 territorial line and stop unacceptable claim on Arunachal Pradesh?  If China is really and sincerely interested in seeing peace and tranquility in the region, this is an opportune time to show some big heart gesture and go back to its original borders and resist from its ambition of territorial expansion.  If not, then I think it is a ploy to see India caving in under the pressure of China and Russia.  These are the chess games, India has to be very very careful in playing its pawns.
