Tough receptions in Malaysia & Colombia to favourable responses across other nations, Indian leaders faced diverse challenges during their outreach after India-Pakistan conflict.
Pakistan is a master of running with hares and hunting with hounds, as it did with the US from 2001 to 2021. It will carefully calibrate its proxy war to keep the pot simmering.
Pakistan lacks capacity to deliver aircraft at pace suggested by its claimed contracts as it depends on China for avionics, electronic warfare, weapons, and on Russia for engines.
UK, EFTA already in the bag and EU on the way, many members of RCEP except China signed up, and even restrictions on China being lifted, India has changed its mind on trade.

So that should be reflected in most South Asians having good feelings about India.
