This has always surprised me honestly. The global north seems to underestimate just what a huge market that India could be for any product or service based on population size alone.

I was also disappointed in the decision from India to start purchases after the war began, but I suspect that it was more of an economic than a political decision.

why were you disappointed that they didn't self-sabotage their economy like germany did?

Based on username I presume you are speaking from experience and didn’t like it. In any case it was more the giving of money to a genocidal maniac that bothered me.

In order for their to be a market there has to be consumers that can afford to participate in said market.

A lot of places in India don’t have that
