many of these states and their governments are openly hostile to communist elements, but a communist party actively opposing their government would risk destabilising it and then playing themselves directly into the hands of the imperialist states. an indefinite "united front" would be desirable, especially in countries like iran, but it seems all leftist organisations in these states have either decided to fully support the government in everything, becoming controlled opposition (KPRF in Russia) or western puppets like (MEK) or whatever the fuck the "leftist opposition" in russia, belarus is.

Is the west in direct opposition to the Indian geopolitical stance to the degree it is against Russia?

Read my comment again, and yes, the west has historically been in direct oppostition to India, and they definitely were from 2000 to 2016. And India is closer to Russia than it is to the west.

It was an honest question, I'm super ignorant to politics of India unfortunately
