Interesting to see Russia focusing on economic growth despite global pressures. India can learn from their resilience in certain sectors, especially technology and energy. But we must maintain our strategic autonomy.

While economic growth is important, we should also consider the ethical dimensions of international partnerships. India's stance at BRICS about supporting Global South is commendable. Our foreign policy should balance economics with values.
