Well we did not have trade embargos, we had technological embargos trying to push us to the stone age but economic sanctions are a very different thing. Frankly NATO cant do such a thing against India and they cant pin anything bad on us either and i dont see them winning any battle on the ground here.give me some examples of how India can embargo Iranian oil and meet India's oil needs at the same time.... I am all ears... I don;t expect you to agree with me but I post answers to your arguments and you dont bother to read them nor answer any of my questions but you go off making other arguments that don't seem to have much traction in them
you are making it seem that India is deliberately doing this to site the west, but in reality India has very few alternatives. secondly India has always helped the International community where it could, we have the largest contingent of troops doing UN peacekeeping missions and has always been supportive of the UN. You also have to keep in mind that we as a country have been on the receiving end of sanctions like these, and they are not effective they only hurt the average citizens for example as a doctor I can tell you that the equipment for treating cancers with radiation is sorely lacking in India because of US sanctions against us, but did nothing to stop India's nuclear program....
These trade embargos on Iran are meant to cripple Iran, i think Iran would have realized its time to strike when they have their defence machinery functional.
