Could you tell me how that is differs to the terminology I used, ie people from India ?
In English, a US foreign national from India would be a person from India or am I missing something obvious ?

Back to the OP: any country that takes such action against flight crews does so at their own peril. At my airline we have told countries we’ll simply stop flying there and reallocate that capacity elsewhere when they have proposed certain things like that.

My opinion on that, if it were indeed the case, is then simply let the airline stop flying there. See who that hurts more! Your comment implies that flight crews are somehow thought to be special and can ignore a sovereign country's entry policy with impunity

It doesn’t hurt the airline more I can tell you that. Go ask some Caribbean nations how losing mainland US service would impact them.
Flight crews have historically been exempt from such restrictions.

Historically, yes. Now... maybe not so much.
