Partners in arms, energy, tech: Putin for deeper ties with India

Russian President Vladimir Putin outlined a vision of a transformed Indo-Russian relationship with a deeper level of partnership. This could see joint development of advanced weapons, cooperation in hi-tech areas ranging from nuclear power to space, and New Delhi benefiting from Moscow’s plans to be Asia’s “reliable” energy supplier.


In an email interview with HT on the eve of his first state visit to India, Putin spoke of New Delhi as a “reliable and time-tested partner” and how this “trust” could be converted into something greater.

This will be Putin’s third meeting with PM Modi, having met him before at the BRICS summit in Brazil and the G-20 summit in Australia. Putin spoke of his “satisfaction” at the Modi government’s “commitment” to seeking “new promising areas of cooperation”.

Putin outlined steps to strengthen the “privileged strategic partnership”. On the problems Russia faces following the global oil price crash and the impact of Western sanctions, he said “we will devote particular attention to expanding trade and economic links, and boosting mutual investments”.

The closeness of the two countries “allows us to start a gradual transition from the traditional producer-consumer model to joint development and production of advanced weapon systems”. He cited the success of the BrahMos cruise missile and the potential in the fifth-generation fighter project. If military ties are to be transformed, he said, they would be “completely different kind of transformations”.

Putin skirted the issue of Russia’s signing a military agreement with Pakistan, saying the two countries had “held talks” on Russian help for counter-terrorism and anti-drug operations. He insisted this would serve the “long-term interests” of all countries, including India.

“We expect to secure ourselves the role of a reliable energy supplier to Asian markets” and spoke of attracting Indian investment and technology. Citing the successful Sakhalin 1 gas project in Siberia, he said Russian firms were “actively discussing” with OVL the possibility of the Indian state-owned firm’s participation in Arctic oil and gas exploration. Putin poured cold water on proposals for a pipeline between Russia and India, questioning its “commercial feasibility.” He said natural gas was already being shipped.

Listing the “joint strategic projects” he mentioned nuclear power plants, sales of the civilian Sukhoi Superjet 100 and MS-21 aircraft, and introducing the Glonass system – a Russian rival to GPS – to “sectors of the Indian economy.” Putin said he expected deals on a butyl rubber plant, helicopter manufacturing, creating ‘smart city’ and tractor assembly. “Our resources enable us to build up to 25 [nuclear] energy units in India,” he said, and that Russia was awaiting land to be allotted for a new reactor outside the Kudankulam cluster.

Bilateral trade between India and Russia had fallen 10 per cent to $ 9 billion in the past year. “It is important to reverse this trend”. Putin expressed confidence in the resilience of Indo-Russian relations. “Regardless of political and public leaders, our countries remained reliable partners in deepening our multifaceted bilateral cooperation,” he said

Is that why India investing billions in Iran chahbar port. Cause Pakistan over estimating its strategic importance. Indian posters on Other forums have declared Russia bankrupt and not worthy all of sudden are cheering Putin.

You buy from Putin You piss of Uncle Sam and Europe. You dont buy from him, you piss of Putin. Enjoy it. We win either Way.

no, more like India have access to all western and Russian arms, and the monies to buy it. India are partners in the PAK FA program and could buy the F-35, neither of which are on offer to Pakistan, nor could Pak afford those platforms anyway. You can only buy flying chingchong 31, even that will put a huge strain on your tiny budget.

You don't win anything.

national interests only, neither US, nor Russia have any leverage to get India to tow it's foreign policy line like the NATO slaves have to now or like Pakistan had to all thru the cold war.

Ukraine and Syria are not in our neighborhood, neither is the US or Russia who are fighting the proxy wars in those theatres. Indian policy.. keep our nose out of it and maintain good relations with both Israel and Syria, Russia and the US.

sorry, no carrot and stick for a country of a billion and next only to China (which is getting saturated) as far as an attractive investment destination for global 'smart money' goes

+ we're a stable democracy, people like that.. gets a bit lively but end of the day we're united.. we know all about Pakistan but when was the last time the army deposed the people's elected government in India, or, when was the last time the people elected their government in China ?

NOW recently INDIA cozying UP WITH AMERICA RUSSIAS ARCH ENEMY so all this CALLS FOR a Greater PAKISTAN RUSSIA STRATEGIC and GEO POLITICAL and ECONOMIC and DEFENCE and SECURITY LEVEL PARTNERSHIP

Russia are a great power, they have their own national interests to pursue, more so now when they're staring at a US sanctions induced recession.

India will continue to be a friend and a strategic partner to them, ie.. big middle finger to uncle sam, this does not involve us.. and amazingly, the result is just both Russia and the US sweetening the pie to lure India away from the other.

'pakistan russia strategic blabla' my ***, it will be as 'strategic' as your dealings with uncle sam nowdays are, no biggie if the Russians throw in a few non critical candy and do business with Pak.

but I'll eat my socks, and buy you a biriyani if they sell you the mig 35 or S-400 as some here have been lusting for.

like I said here:

Naval Variant indo russian pak fa taking off from US EMALS equipped INS Vishal ?

also, wonder why Mr Putin isn't making a stop at Islamabad, any ideas, **** SSG ?
