The truth is seen in adversity, and the heart is seen in adversity.
When the epidemic in India was out of control, Modi witnessed the "truth" while also seeing the "true face" of the United States.
Does Modi have a helper? India's pandemic is in a hurry, the United States, Britain, France and Germany decide to take action. Indian people: it's too late
Since the beginning of April, the Indian epidemic has ushered in a new round of outbreak. From the beginning of the daily increase of 100,000 confirmed diagnoses, to 200,000, and now to 300,000, the record is being set almost every day. Shows a clear "out of control" situation.
However, this is not the "highest peak" of the epidemic in India.
On the 25th, Paul, the head of the epidemic in the Indian Central Government, issued an early warning that the epidemic would reach its peak in mid-May. By then, the daily increase in the number of confirmed diagnoses will rise to 500,000, and more than 5,000 people will be killed by the epidemic every day.
On the 26th, New Delhi, the capital of India, announced that it would continue to extend the "blockade period" for another week in order to prevent and control the epidemic when it has been "blocked".
Seeing the escalation of the epidemic situation, Modi also spoke out urgently, calling on the public to actively vaccinate and abide by the epidemic prevention regulations, and bluntly said that "the epidemic is like a storm that has shaken the entire India."
Although Modi's appeal is good, the reality is very unsatisfactory.

First of all, India's medical supplies have been exhausted, and key anti-epidemic supplies such as oxygen and ventilators are gone. Vaccines are also unable to be supplied in large quantities because the raw materials are "stuck" by the United States.
Therefore, Modi called on the people to actively vaccinate, but India simply does not have enough vaccines for the people to vaccinate.
Secondly, since the outbreak of the epidemic, the Indian people have shown their “fascinating self-confidence” in the epidemic. Not only did they fail to take the anti-epidemic regulations such as wearing masks and keeping distances seriously, they also “independently developed” a series of unknowns. The "anti-epidemic" methods of China, such as "drinking Ganges water, smearing cow dung" and so on.
On the 25th, the Indian media also released a video of suspected medical staff "feeding cow urine" to patients with the new crown, which aroused strong dissatisfaction and protests among the people of the country.
At the same time, due to lack of oxygen, many family members of new crown patients "get together" at oxygen supplement points to obtain oxygen. The outside world is worried that this may become a new spreading point of the epidemic.
This is not over yet. Due to the lack of anti-epidemic materials, Indian border guards began to inhale steam with pressure cookers to "sterilize" themselves, which once again aroused concerns from the outside world.

In addition, due to the surge in the number of confirmed cases, governments across India have blocked many public places, including temples. But even so, there are still many newlyweds holding weddings at the entrance of the temple, and most of the people around them do not wear masks, let alone maintain a safe social distance.
In addition, India’s population base is large and dense, testing activities have not yet been popularized, and the public lacks awareness of epidemic prevention. It seems that there is no reason for the escalation of the epidemic.
However, now that the epidemic is going out of control in India, what is most urgently needed is anti-epidemic supplies. For this reason, the Modi government has repeatedly sought help from Western countries such as the United States, Britain, France and Germany.
But as a result, countries such as the United States, Japan and Australia, which were still "brothers" with India, not only chose to sit idly by, the United States also refused to provide assistance to India and refused to relax restrictions on the export of vaccine raw materials on the grounds of "prioritizing domestic epidemic protection". .
However, at a critical moment, Pakistan and my country took the lead in making a statement and are willing to provide assistance to India by providing ventilators, oxygen generators, protective clothing and other materials.
Subsequently, German Chancellor Merkel also stated that he would provide emergency assistance to India and provide anti-epidemic materials to help New Delhi control the epidemic.

Seeing these responsible countries take action, I don't know if they can't get rid of their faces or come to Taiwan. The United States has also expressed its intention to provide assistance to India.
On the 26th, U.S. President Biden issued a document stating that assistance will be provided to India, just as India sent supplies to Washington at a time of crisis in the United States.
It should be noted that just the day before, the US State Department and the Secretary of State stated that they should give priority to the prevention and control of the US epidemic, and then issued an "oral check"-to provide "additional assistance" to India.
In less than 24 hours, the United States made two diametrically opposite statements. The outside world knows that the United States does not really want to help India, but after seeing the international community extending a helping hand, it is under pressure and cannot Does not help New Delhi.
Interestingly, Biden did not specify what assistance will be provided to India and when the assistance promise will be fulfilled.
It should be noted that since the outbreak of the epidemic last year, the United States has said more than once that it wants to assist other countries, but until now, it has not seen actual actions taken by the United States.
Therefore, before seeing the materials, the promise of the United States is still a "blank check." Whether it can be honored or not has to be said.

It should also be noted that the United States is the country that stocks the most vaccines in the world, with more than 800 million vaccines, while the total population of the United States is not more than 300 million. In other words, the vaccines that the United States possesses are sufficient and "surplus."
On the 26th, the "India Express" reported that the United States had stored nearly 40 million doses of AstraZeneca vaccine that "will never be used". And this batch of vaccines is likely to be distributed to India and other countries.
In other words, even if the United States agrees to provide help, it will only distribute "unusable vaccines or other materials" to other countries.
In the face of the US's "two-sided, three-sided, one-sided, one-sided" approach, strong "anti-American" sentiment has erupted in India. Some people even said, "It's too late, Mr. President, we will defeat the epidemic on our own." It was also pointed out that “India will never forget the ruthlessness of the United States. Good people get rewarded, and bad things are the same.”
In a word, if you don’t come to give charcoal in the snow, who is the icing on the cake? The eyes of the masses are discerning. I believe the Indian people will not forget what the United States has done to India.

At present, after China, Pakistan and other countries have expressed their willingness to assist India, the "relaxation" of the United States has also led other Western countries-Britain, France and the European Union have all stated that they will provide assistance to New Delhi.
It can be seen that the United States still plays a "leader" role in the Western camp, and the White House's every move has an obvious impact on the international community.
From this point of view, Western countries had “sit back and ignored” the Indian epidemic before, and a large part of the “pot” still had to be backed by the United States.
In this regard, Modi really has to think twice about whether he should continue to "brother" with the United States.
Finally, let's briefly talk about two points of view.
- The epidemic in India is going out of control again, and New Delhi really has to find its own reasons-do you take the epidemic seriously? Did you go all out in the fight against the epidemic?

After all, relying on everyone will run, relying on trees will fall, and only oneself is the most reliable at the critical moment. This time, the international community has extended a helping hand, so who should India turn to for help next time?
After all, the prevention and control of the epidemic and the development of national power are the key. Being tied up with the United States and the “four-nation mechanism of the United States, India, Japan and Australia” will eventually only bring down India. How can we talk about rising?
Where to go, Modi had to think about it.

- The epidemic is a common challenge for all mankind, and any country “being left behind” cannot be regarded as a victory in the fight against the epidemic.
In the face of the Indian epidemic, the United States turned a blind eye to it, and even refused to help. It was not a "big country to take on" it. Fortunately, the United States was only an "exception."
Nowadays, the international community has stepped up to help, so that while the Indian epidemic is expected to usher in a "turnaround", it also allows the world to see the unity and mutual assistance shown by the "community of human destiny" in times of crisis.
In short, I still hope that the epidemic will pass as soon as possible, and that all mankind will win this "fight against the epidemic" as soon as possible.
