Haha that’s funny so modi is asking countries to be more like China, especially America who probably uses the most petroleum per capita
Gendu PM for a reason 😊
Don't have the guts to say the USA is the culprit and is the number one terrorist country in the world. All countries in the world should unite to bombard the USA and erase It forever. I try my best to avoid purchasing USA products, I buy Chinese products If there is no Indian alternative.
