India and russia are far far closer than india and usa/west. When the partition happened with india and pakistan. India was approached and aligned with soviets and pakistan by usa (as a response) thats how pakistan became a major us ally in fighting soviets in afghanistan then afterwards pakistan started getting close to china. After which us and india’s relationship became strong.
Now the situation is changing again. Pakistan is getting more pro us/west while india is getting more closer to russia.
Its a bit funny how much you can tell about geo politics just by reading the narrative in US media.
The US has often tried to get closer to India and there are a number of reasons to think US/India should be a better match. Pakistan has not been a great ally, but everyone else in the area has been far worse. Thus the US has been forced to use Pakistan as our ally in this region.
Pakistan going more pro US is good, and hopefully it leads them to other good things about the US as well.
