@jeremyjones8258 Major Asian players in global geopolitics abstained, that's the point here. You're focusing on pedantic and trivial details that don't matter at all. Not all countries in the world are heavyweights with agency in global geopolitics. The fact that only Japan, South Korea and Singapore have been the most vocal about condemning Russia whilst, India and China say nothing is a significant detail to focus on. You need to remember that Japan, India and China are the main geopolitical powers in most of Asia. Most Asian countries fall somewhere within the line of these countries when it comes to geopolitics as well as economics.
You also need to remember that this is geopolitics and there are different definitions. It's often described and viewed that the Asia-Pacific (everything east or and including Pakistan) is one geopolitical region and the Middle East (West Asia+Egypt) is considered a separate region. The major geopolitical players of the Middle East (Iran and Saudi Arabia) do not have much impact, if anything at all, on what happens in the Asia-Pacific. In the Asia-Pacific, it's Japan, India, China and Australia that are the major players. So you can't blame her for focusing on the Asian countries of the Asia-Pacific becuase those are the countries that are interconnected politically and economically and like I said before, they all fall in line somewhere with Japan, India and China.

@jdmytho9599 You're so wrong lmao. In the UK, '"Asian" means Indian. In Australia, even though "Asian" means "East Asian" people still know India is part of Asia. In the US, Indians are legally classified as Asians and educated Americans know that Indians are Asians. In African countries like Kanya and South Africa, "Asian" means Indian. There is a whole community of Indians in Kenya known officially as "Kenyan Asians". In the Gulf nations of the Middle East, "Asian" means Indian. Qatar built a whole complex called Asian Town and it's full of Indian/South Asian shops. In Southeast Asia, "Indians are always considered Asian. You really thought you could get away with that one. Many Malaysians, Singaporeans, Burmese have Indian ancestry and Southeast Asia is culturally influenced by India. Everything from the language scripts to write Thai, Khmer, Burmese, Javanese, to religion (Buddhism and Hinduism), to attire (e.g. Thai sabai, Cambodian sampot and Burmese longyi) to architecture (e.g. Angkor Wat) to traditional greetings (e.g. Thai wai, Cambodian sampeah and Balinese Om Swastiastu) to traditional Southeast Asian food (Thai, Burmese, Cambodian, Malaysian, Indonesian, Vietnamese curries and cooking techniques) are all of Indian/South Asian origin.
Next time, don't lie to an Asian person and tell us who we consider who is Asian and who is not. India (and China) are the mothers of Eastern culture. So don't even try to say Indians are not Asians.
BTW, stop liking your own comments. Also, funny you keep calling them "East Indians". Do you know why they're called that? The "East" in "East Indian" refers to their Asian origin (as in coming from the Eastern world). Smh...
