how you came to that conclusion .Pakistani chutiye..
Russia has been always close to India and I think it will never support Pakistan against India, Because India share very good relation with Russian Federation despite having close alliance with western world.
We can see some of the key point about India and Russia relationship
- India-Russia relationship is based on politics, defense, space , civil nuclear and anti-terrorism co-operation.
- Indo-Russian Inter-Governmental Commission (IRIGC) conducts government level talks between these two nation where top level minister from both the nation took part. IRIGC mainly divided in two parts where first cover economic aspects and second part cover military technology advancement.
- Russia supported India's permanent seat in United Nation Security Council (UNSC), both the countries are member of UN,G20, BRICS and SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organisation)
- India is worlds biggest arms importer and 70% of these imports are from Russia making Russia the biggest supplier to Indian defense industry
- India and Russia economic relation are in good shape with both countries targeting bilateral trade about $30 Billion in next 5–10 year , Russia supported Make in India and Smart City initiative. India and Russia will jointly develop some of the defense equipment, aircraft which will exclusively Made in India and infrastructure for smart city with the help of Russian companies.There is lot more other things in future like Space co-operation, building 20 energy nuclear reactor in India and Free Trade Agreement between two nation
- Russia is India’s oldest and most trusted defense partner which led to great military co-operation between these two nation. Some of fighter plane and missile are jointly developed by India and Russia INDRA is joint bi-annual military exercise between India and Russia and Avia-Indra is annual military exercise conducted by the Air forces of India and Russia
Now coming to Pakistan’s relation with Russia, it was always considered as sort of cold war rival and never had very good relation in past.
Pakistan largest import of arms came from China and USA and Russia is not in there list. I think last year a news broke out where it was mentioned that Pakistan bought four Mi-35 helicopters from Russia. This may be reason for latest military exercise between two nation as a opportunity to increase the sale of defense industry in Russia (its business nothing else from my perspective).
I need to highlight few things before we say Russia supporting Pakistan against India.
- When military exercise was started between Russia and Pakistan from 24 September 2016 same time India Army was in Russia for their bi-yearly military exercise INDRA2016 (Below are the images)
May be as other are saying that world is changing but this will take longer than usual for Russia to support Pakistan against India. I don’t think this will be possible in near future because India always maintained balanced relation with Russia and western countries namely USA.
EDIT: Recent visit of President Putin for BRICS summit enhanced the ties with India and ending the speculation about India and Russia relationship. Mr Modi while addressing the media with Putin clearly indicate and stated
"One old friend is better than two new ones" using Russian proverb.
Indian PM and Russian Federation President signed 16 agreement majorly include
