Thanks for the reply.

Would be interesting to know their associations/leanings etc.

On googling found this article by Michèle Flournoy


View attachment 65469

On Susan Rice (2016 article)


Chris Coons


It seems Sen. Coons also welcomed Aus inclusion in Malabar exercise

Michèle Flournoy is considered a domain expert. She was apparently the top
Contender for SecDef in a potential Clinton administration. She was also offered Deputy SecDef to Gen. Mattis before she withdraw.

Senator Coons is pretty close to Biden. He succeeded Biden senate seat after Biden became VP. From what I read, if he is not picked for SecState, he would be Biden's eyes and ears in Senate where Republicans are keeping their majority.

Apparently Obama wanted Susan Rice to be SecState in 2013 before picking John Kerry as their was less chance of Republican senate approving Susan Rice at that time. She is also one of the fav. for SecState this time.

Yeah, I agree with indrajit. Tony Blinken is poised to get one of the top posts in Biden administration.

News: Contract for large numbers of AASM HAMMER for Rafale was signed in September and deliveries are by November-end. This is a very tight delivery schedule, so French AF has agreed to send some HAMMERs from it's own arsenal to India. Requirement is urgent due to LAC standoff.
France has thus shown that it's a relatively reliable friend of India.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.


I assume these are strictly for Rafales as it will take time to integrate our existing PGM's with these birds?

Plenty of comments on Weibo cheering Chinese government's moves to bar travellers from India with gratuitous use of the racist epithet “印度阿三“ - unfortunate but not at all unexpected

Denmark is going to deploy its army to slaughter up to 17 million mink.

They have mutated a stronger coronavirus strain, and have already transmitted it to at least 12 people.

The parliament of India has passed a unanimous resolution regarding POK that it is a part of India . We will never forget this. Until POK is not integrated with India ,India will not have a complete solution to the border dispute with Pakistan. : RM Rajnath Singh //This could also be a message to the new admins in US the the only thing to resolve about Kashmir is the area called POK

Some people were opining that Home ministers statement in the Lok Sabha in response to a a question was the chief trigger for the ChuChi adventure.

Now the RM has said the same. Waiting for another ChuChi adventure

The words are encouraging, but sooner or later, they need to be backed up in action now.

Border confrontations and unprovoked military actions spiralling into larger conflict can't be discounted: CDS Bipin Rawat
Will not accept any shifting of #LAC : CDS Bipin rawat

Two statements within a short span of time. Just a message to ChuChees & their illegitimate sons i think
