Obviously big thanks go to all abstaining parties for not falling into the Western bullshit trap... the rest of y'all's countries not so much...
Interesting that both India and South Africa abstained.
Additionally, the following 13 member countries skipped the vote for this resolution entirely:
Indian social media and reddit seems to actually be heavily on Russia's side of all this - couldn't figure out the politics behind the support, that would need more research/attention than I have to give at the moment (yayyyyy identity crisis).
If anyone has any info on what I'm saying or if I'm totally wrong with my anecdotes feel free to reply lol
Historically the Soviet Union tended to have good relations with India, and when Pakistan was developing good relations with the USA India had to get closer to Russia. Russia is also key in developing India's nuclear energy capabilities. Another part of it could be that India buys a lot of military equipment from Russia, almost all of their tanks are T-72s and T-90s, and a good portion of their air force are MiG-29s and Su-30s.
Soviet Union literally helped when the Bengal Famine happened. The same one that British pig Churchill allowed to happen. The relationship developed better under Khruschev and one of the reason(idk if it's really true) that China was angry at USSR for was their extra help with India. You won't see any Indian shit talk Soviet Union except for the western bootlickers.
