    The Spin

    Pro-India narrative

    India maintains strict export controls and hasn't violated any laws regarding dual-use components. The country's robust legal framework ensures compliance with international non-proliferation obligations through proper due diligence. These components were likely legally exported to legitimate third countries before being diverted without manufacturers' knowledge.

    Pro-Ukraine narrative

    Ukraine demands immediate action to cut off Russia's access to foreign components enabling deadly drone attacks on civilians and infrastructure. The discovery of Indian parts in weapons killing Ukrainians highlights the urgent need for stronger international cooperation to prevent such diversions. India's continued use of Russian oil is another aspect of its disregard for Ukraine.
