I do not think that india will get itself deeper in the scs dispute any further. Would just support vietnam and philipines thats it.
But I believe india has been bargaining for tech claiming to hold the IOR under its influence and keep china out of it.
US is worried china wants to expand its influence. IOR is the next destination after SCS. It is in our interest to IOR and keep china out, that is where our interests converge.
For SCS, the countries over there would be sufficient along with US. While japan rattles the ECS.
And you think that will be enough to keep IOR out of China's reach and India can enjoy alone? After SCS, IOR will be US next target, we Chinese will enjoy to return India some favors that were overdues.
