The Trump admin's Pakistan courtship achieves what China couldn't: pushing India into Beijing's orbit. Irony dies as Modi's China détour becomes Washington's strategic own-goal.  

June's solo lunch with Pakistan's military chief (6/18/25) triggered India's private protest over terror "red lines," while $190B trade partner India faces XX% tariffs. Meanwhile, Jaishankar's Beijing visit (7/14-21/25) reopened Chinese investment floodgates & Modi-Xi BRICS talks cemented border deals. Trump's transactional bullying transformed the Quad's counterweight into Xi's reluctant dance partner.  

History will note: America's Nobel bid for Trump (7/21/25) coincided with India's forced Beijing embrace.
