My best guess is Nepal will be used to try and force a divide between India and China. Idk if they'll pull some Ukraine-style land dispute that pulls one or the other into invading and causes border drama, or if they're just going to use it as a base for ethno-nationalist tensions and trying to tear the Himalayan region apart through sedition. Hopefully both countries can keep the shit contained and, within another decade, we'll see leftists booting out the puppets in Nepal again.
