Right now Biden and Kamala Harris are only “engaged”. The “marriage” isn’t until the Convention next week. Like Lady Di, Kamala’s face is already on merchandise. However, Thomas Eagleton was already the VP nominee and on merchandise and George McGovern removed him 18 days after the Convention. It ain’t over. Hopefully there will be a DNC revolt against Kamala.

Kamala’s uncle, Dr Gopalan Balachandran, and grandfather, PV Gopalan, were high ranking public servants for India, primarily serving the Congress Party, which was mostly Soviet allied. Dr Gopalan Balachandran explained to India Today TV (August 12, 2020) that he communicates with Kamala through his daughter, who lives in DC, due to the possibility of email hacking: “so nobody can say she is influenced by her family in India…https://archive.vn/rNYGx Kamala’s position on Kashmir-highlighted in the article- is merely the most common one for the Congress Party, as opposed to Modi’s ruling BJP.

India news has been quick to point out his (now only unofficial) affiliation as consultant with the recently renamed Manohar Parrikar Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses,IDSA. IDSA provides training for government of India civilian and military personnel. It is funded by India’s Ministry of Defence. https://miningawareness.wordpress.com/2020/08/08/us-senator-kamala-harris-uncle-still-advising-india-ministry-of-defence-think-tank-unofficially-while-she-sits-on-homeland-security-intel-committees/

Kamala’s fellow Brahmin member of the US Congress, Ro Khanna, wants the US to have a NATO-like relationship with India. Ro serves on the U.S. House Committee on Armed Services. https://miningawareness.wordpress.com/2020/02/24/trump-announces-military-deal-with-india-bernie-sanders-campaign-co-chair-ro-khanna-pushing-for-nato-equivalent-military-pact-with-india/ It isn’t in America’s interest to fight China or Pakistan for India. And it would possibly put us at war with parts of Europe, which are working with China on the belt and road. We shouldn’t choose sides in India vs China, it’s not in the interest of the American people, apart from some few. India is apparently a subsidiary of Russia. If we have to be Russian owned, better direct ownership.

Kamala’s uncle, and a colleague, point out the importance of US Presidential powers for sanctions implementation.
The Countering America’s Adversaries through Sanction Act (CAATSA), if implemented in its extreme form, has the potential to adversely affect India’s defence purchases from its traditional defence partner, Russia… CAATSA was passed overwhelmingly by the US Congress… Title II of the Act primarily deals with sanctions on Russian interests… Two of the most stringent of these sanctions are the export licence restriction by which the US President is authorised to suspend export licences related to munitions, dual-use and nuclear related items; and the ban on American investment in equity/debt of the sanctioned person…” “Implications of CAATSA for India’s Defence Relations with Russia and America“, April 26, 2018 by Laxman Kumar Behera and G Balachandran, Manohar Parrikar Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses (IDSA) [See article, below].

Remember that IDSA provides training for government of India civilian and military personnel. It is funded by India’s Ministry of Defence. Kamala Harris has been in the US Senate since January 2017, serving on the Intelligence and Homeland Security committes.

Kamala could be one heartbeat from the US Presidency very shortly. Her uncle and a colleague explain India’s view, but India’s interests are not America’s interests, though they argue otherwise. The Senate vote in favor of CAATSA was something like 98 to 2 so Kamala could easily vote with the majority to trick people … her vote didn’t matter.

Emphasis our own:
