Operation Mahakal: Episode 6 The Foreign Reactions

The brewing conflict did not go UN noticed by the major powers of the world with the US issuing travel advisory to its citizens from going to India.

UK followed the same patterns as the US by urging its citizens to stay off “Conflict prone areas” 

But the real action was centered in the UNSC with china moving to pass a resolution to condemn India for what it called “ unilateral and unprovoked aggression” 

Diplomatic actives were at their height with diplomatic cables being exchanged at brake neck speed 

Meanwhile the base at Diego Garcia was activated and the 7th fleet USN and Asiatic petrol of the RN were deployed in the IOR 

China In a move to scare India did what it called aggressive defense of borders and water ways

But in the UNSC the Indian diplomatic corps worked day and night at the middle of all this was India’s permanent representative to the UN Smut preethi Raj 

She was known as a no nonsense hard-nosed diplomat she was the one who shrewd the decision in India’s favour and worked behind the scenes get the motion moved against India quashed 

The Russian president Vladimir Makarov was the first to call his good friend the Indian prime minister to “offer all support nesscery “ for one of Russia’s oldest friends

the call from the UK was sweet with little substance and was duly ignored same could be said for the European union except for the French republic who promised to fast track all important defense deals thus far signed 

The GCC surprisingly backed India especially Oman and the United Arab Emirates they went to such extant as to deny landing or over flight rights to the PIA 

Israel didn’t have to call India already weapons were being shipped to India 

But there was a player that could spoil the whole game for India Uncle Sam

The president of USA was a through and through patriot and was as American as Apple pie and 67 mustang 

The so called commander of the free world walked in to the situation room in the west wing of His palatial presidential home 

Assembled in the room were his top military commanders and home department officials 

after a it was decided that the US would stay neutral on the outside and would help India through Israel and France and the SAD of the CIA would also be “there to help” India that way the US would not have to play an active role in the fast evolving situation at least not publicly 

India withdrew the forces that it had deployed with the UNPKCOM for deployment within the warzone 

Closer to home the Indian cabinet upgraded the status of Operation Falcon to an active deterrence operation and also authorized the SSF to be deployed on an “as and when” needed basis in Operation falcon 

Pakistan was growing more and more isolated in the world china always wanted trade and soon distanced itself from its “aggressive defense of borders and water ways” and asked the “the warring parties to stand down and seek the way of peace”

All waited with bated berth to see what would come of the posturing this time
