Top Russian & Indian Think Tanks Devised A Plan For Rebalancing Economic Relations
Authored by Andrew Korbybko via Substack,

The Russian International Affairs Council (RIAC) and Gateway House, which are among their country's top think tanks, published a joint report in late March about moving “Toward More Balanced Russia–India Economic Relations” for the second Russia-India International Conference. It's over 40 pages long so this piece will highlight the top takeaways and then briefly analyze them.
