There is a growing sense in India that its leaders should not allow American policymaking to shape its choices on vital energy supplies.

There's a growing sense that Donald "TACO" Trump's threats are hollow.

Also, more and more people are realizing that there's no appeasing a dictator - especially a feckless one like this one. If you cave in, you'll get on the orange utan's wrong side eventually anyway and it will all have been for nothing. So why even bother...

And finally, let's not forget that Trump's tariff are illegal. when (if?) America gets its collective brain unscrambled and rein him in, and annul the illegal tariffs, India will have lost nothing if they just waited.

They just really really don't like the West and the voters don't either.

They've gotten friendlier with the West in the past few decades. The distrust is for good reason given history of Western foreign interference (colonialism) and the US having a close relationship with Pakistan pre Bin Laden.

They are simply forced to get closer to the West due to China.
