Despite the fall of the Soviet Union in the year 1991 also the relationship with India and Russia has been bonded by years of trust and faithfulness, The two nations has become more co-operative in many of the vast sectors including nuclear co-operation. What is your opinion on this relation? Thoughts and suggestions welcomed.

Russia will now build four nuclear energy reactors at Kudankulam in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
Russia is already building two other reactors at the Kudankulam site.
Russia becomes the third country to sign a nuclear deal with India after the signing of the India-US agreement which allows India access to civilian nuclear technology and fuel.

Moscow and Delhi also signed a deal under which Russia will assist India in its space programme, including sending Indian astronauts into space.
And India will buy 80 military helicopters from Russia, cementing a relationship that dates back to the Cold War.
India and Russia have been traditional allies and around 70% of India's military hardware comes from Russia.

Both countries have also added to their treaty some of these too...

Both countries signed a contract for India to buy 80 Mi-17 transport helicopters (Mi-17), worth more than $1 billion, said Anatoly Isaikin, head of Russia's state-run arms-export monopoly Rosoboron.

India, which wants to buy billions of dollars of weapons as it rearms, has been unhappy with holdups on major Russian arms contracts, including a delay to a $1.5 billion aircraft carrier modernisation.

"Our main task is to switch from buying or selling weapons to jointly designing and producing them. We have such plans in rocket building and aviation," Medvedev said.

India, along with China, is one of Russia's biggest clients for arms sales.

I may be cynical, but I believe that the relation between Russia and India is more by necessity than by affinity.

The USA have for years supported Pakistan, and its rival India has enrolled the support of the other super-power at the time: the Soviet Union.

Russia has just inherited a situation, by which it is an arm and technology supplier to India.

India is backing America to pressurize Pakistan in many of its doings and activity, But USA is not a faithful partner and India is quite aware of the situation's so they back USA to get the nuclear pact and bought a safe route to Russia deals.

I agree with the statement that Rinku says.
