Will support India against friendly neighbour: Medvedev

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on Wednesday said his country would support India if they ever had to take a hard decision against "a friendly neighbouring country". Addressing a packed hall at IIT Bombay, Medvedev, looking comfortable in an open neck blue shirt and black suit, said India and
Russia have special relations "and it is not a figure of speech".

"I'm not disclosing a state secret but when I visited India four days after the Mumbai terror attacks I told them (the government)...we are ready to provide weapons, modern technology and know-how," said the dynamic 45-year-old President.

The President had requested to visit IIT Bombay because it was established with the help of the then USSR government. Though he walked in almost an hour late, a loud applause greeted Medvedev. "It was not that I woke up late but the airport was shut for an hour," he said.

Does not matter, as long as he stated he would fully suport India, what matters most to me.

 

[Kyusuibu Honbu]

I don't have much confidence in that statement.

Why would Russia side with us,when we didn't even vocally support or even comment on the Georgian conflict?

Mostly Russia will try to ease tensions.

 

[Indian-Devil]

This is a solid proof of friendship between India and Russia. He dare to say Russia will support India, even in case with friendly neighbours.
Not like yanks who always use complicated and political language while addressing in such events.

 

[Bias Neutral]

The Russian-India alliance is totally different and better in the long term to that of China-Pakistan.

In the sense that Russia is not using India for its demographic or anything else, and a rising India will benefit Russia economy, by India buying more gas etc and weapons.

While Russia can outsource most of the work to India.

Its a win win alliance.

India and Russia are time tested allies. The areas of cooperation just shows this.

Wow........you must have some really good "sources" to inform you a long time in advance what Medvedev was going to give as an answer to a specific question by an IIT student.
