100% agreed!!

This thing may still have some legs although my skepticism remains the same.

^^^ Hmmm... I did not know that Biden had taken IMEC seriously enough to make that comment at another venue. I am also a bit surprised.

‘Enormous interest in IMEC’, says Foreign Minister Jaishankar; West Asia conflict an “unexpected problem”

While Jaishankar acknowledged that the crisis has been an “unanticipated problem" which is “serious", he indicated that India was not considering a rethink of the project.

“Certainly, unanticipated problems, even of a serious nature, can happen and we are seeing one right now. But I don’t think, because something has happened, if you have a larger goal and a larger plan, that you immediately start rethinking and revising that," Jaishankar 
“I think you keep your master plan going and you do the work. You also, side by side, respond to whatever else has happened out there," he added
