Ukraine is not a part of Europe but an integral part of Russia since before the WW1.
So Europe shouldn't fall into the trap of the immoral liar US to assume Ukraine as a part of Europe.
Since Ukraine is not a part of Europe, comparing the severity of both wars between Gaza war and Ukraine war, Europe should realize that US has been committing genocide in Gaza war by funding the genocide weapons endlessly and preventing the UN troops from stationing in Gaza so that genocide may be committed in Gaza without restraint.
It's time for Europe to wake up in order to stop US from supporting genocide in Gaza endlessly as well as extending the Ukraine war unprecedented comparing to the first Ukraine war or else US would certainly lead to WW3 where Europe would certainly become the greatest failure unprecedented due to the misleading of untrustworthy Jews administration in US.
Without Europe's backing to the Gaze genocide criminal US, WW3 would not be realized so the dice in Europe's hand whether to instigate WW3 and destroy Europe unlike never seen before.

Cost of living in India if compare globally is less but within India, it depends on which city you stay. Big cities like Mumbai, Bangalore or Delhi are more costly than comparing to small cities identified under class B. Major portion of monthly expanses includes housing rent. The average monthly rent for 2BHK house in Delhi and Mumbai is in the range of Rs.50000 to 60000/-(Fifty to sixty Thousand). The other major part of monthly expanses for family of four with two kids going in school is education cost. Average school fee per child studying in a decent school is monthly Rs.10000/-(Ten thousand) per child.

I am interested to invest 3 million USD on India and I'd like to know the best city with less real state duties.

I am afraid of Muslim invasion (Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan) to India.. could be worthless if that migration it's not controlled on near future.
