So you have Nixon's doing the mediation in the background.

We got refugees flying all over the place.

India comes to the United States and says, look, you need to tell the Chinese not to intervene in this thing.

And the Indians also say, you need to bring this up at the UN, the human rights stuff, because India's literally getting millions of refugees trying to flee this mess, and the United States won't do any of it.

It gets even better.

The United States has the gall to blame the Indians for the war.

Dream on.

So Indira Gandhi is just...

furious at this one.

And so the United States had wished that India would cease being non-aligned and aligned with the West.

Oh, well, they have ceased being non-aligned, all right.

They signed a military pact with Russia over this.

And then they upgrade their relationship with Vietnam, which totally upsets the United States.

And it gets even better.

They

They shut down Indians.

They won't give scholars any visas to come to India to study India.

So you wonder why US universities didn't have any Indian studies programs?

It's all about this.

So that explains what's going on with all of that.
