With Ukraine back in the fold of mother Russia and with Russia already talking of a customs union with Belarus (with which it also talked a lot about a federal union in recent past) and Kazakhstan, Ukraine being the last piece in the puzzle to Russia's creating first a customs union later economic and thereafter a political union, a new Soviet Union, a federation based not on communism but free market but going to be a single party dictatorship this time the United Party. Do you think Russia is moving in that direction? And so with a new union would it become a superpower again on equal footing of that of the United States?
Too early to project any such possibilities with almost zero level of growth in that direction. Today's world isn't the same as it used to be in Cold War. It is more diverse and multi-lateral. Russia doesn't currently have a tenth of the military muscle and wealth it had during the era of USSR.
Even if we hypothetically say that the Soviet Empire returns, it won't hold the same awe and power as it used to in yesteryears since China is growing at a fast rate and expanding its military and so is India. Apart from that, Brazil and infact the entire BRIC group is rising together while United States is stagnant in those terms.
Even if Soviet Union emerges which is impossible, it will have a next-door competitor in the form of China who in turn will have a competitor in the form of India, therefore creating a multi-lateral world.
Russia was always a good nation just western media made it into something it was not and with unjust sanctions , now Russia is stronger then ever and I feel our nation should cooperate with Russia as they are more reliable vs US
Are you sure you want to say that, friend? Your arch-rival in the region is Moscow's closest ally and bosom friend, which even as many analysts wrongly predicted during the New Delhi's "Gorshkov hiatus" would end their friendship, has infact strongly re-bounded with even more vigorous defense deals and economic ties in spheres such as nuclear energy cooperation, a north-south corridor project connecting Indian Ocean with Russia via surface, etc. Their relations are more than 5 decades old and the kind of ties they have had is much different than what Pakistan has had with the United States.
Russians might have become a bit more business minded in these years, but after reading numerous articles, analysis and even consulting some of my colleagues in strategy analysis, it is clear that neither the Russians nor the Indians are going to ever leave each other in the foreseeable future. IMO it would take more than a dozen defense deals between United States and the Indians to move them away from their 5-decade-old ally. You might want to therefore re-think about your statement.
Also, the much-debated-here revival of Soviet Union would re-kindle the intimacy of yesteryears' romance between Moscow and Delhi, meaning even more stronger relationship that the current one which is already at peak. This could also mean revival of old sentiments and grudges and judging by what your government did against them alongside NATO, you might want to wish that USSR never re-emerges (no offense intended).
As of a neutral country, I would advise you to stick to the country that you feel so closely allied to, which after coming here I feel is essentially China.
