@CountingStars333 you already have picked a side just like Singapore has Singapore has been jointly exercising with United States military Pacific command since 1981 and India has also picked the side of the United States Where they routinely share intelligence and reconnaissance information via the 5 Eyes intelligence network Granted India didn't choose the US in the beginning because the US dumbly allied itself with the archenemy of India, Pakistan, in 1953 and they didn't come to regret that until decades later Meaning for much of the cold war India was buddy buddy with the Soviets/Russians And even today India still somewhat is, but there are cracks in that relationship forming and it's possible India might denounce and internationally isolate Russia decades down the line just like the US has done to it's former ally Pakistan

They already do to an extent, as this is evident by the Quad and the 5 Eyes program the US sadly though lost the Indians as an ally, for much of the 20th century because they were allied to Pakistan in 1953 forcing the Indian government to side with the Russians during the cold war And the US they didn't help the situation much by having a very inconsistent policy regarding Kashmir So the US government has unfortunately tried to overcome these barriers of deep mistrust via the Indian government Bit that mistrust is also felt by the US towards India as well because India still is buddy buddy with Russia even to this day, much to the US's annoyance And that favor towards Russia still manifests sometimes such as when India abstained from voting for condemning Russian's actions in Ukraine
