I foresee that by 2020, the new emerging alliance is going to be RIC - Russia, India, China. Though this would hinge on trade and economy, there would also be a military alliance of sorts.
The Sino Indian border dispute would most probably have been resolved before then to the satisfaction of both sides.
From the present $60 billion, Sino Indian trade is projected at $100 billion by 2015 and likely to cross $300 billion by 2020, which is pretty huge by any stanadard.
The U.S foresees this triangle which it fears could be detrimental to its national interests and therefore trying to woo India away.
Cheers!
If India plan to form some kind of alliance with China, it might as well send the dispute territory to China. Nationalism in China would not allow China to concede any territory. And I believe its the case in India as well. What India need now is to strengthen its relationship with the US as US is the one country that has enough power to ensure India security.
