also india has one of the worlds largest muslim populations, and india is also the most populous democracy in the world.

most people forget that india has been one of the most vocal countries regarding the persecution of the chinese muslim population. more so than for example turkey, pakistan, saudi, even US and EU has not said much about the muslims being put into concentration camps.

i would say blocking apps and starting sanctions would be the logical steps to take. much better than waging war i would say.

So you are saying the current Indian goverment cares more about the wellbeing of Muslims in Xinjiang than Muslims in India?

(I don't want to diminish the awful things going on in Xinjiang, but I think giving the rest of what Modi does this would be more cynically down by the Indian government than you make it out to be.)
