    INDIA - RUSSIA: DESPITE DIFFERENCES, TIES REMAIN STRONG

    The visit of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov to India soon after his remark that “India is currently an object of the western countries’ persistent, aggressive and devious policy to engage it in anti-China games” alluded to an assessment by Moscow that despite differences, its relationship with New Delhi was too important. The study presents a contrary view that all is not well with the relations; Lavrov’s Pakistan visit; whether India is rethinking purchase of S-400 and possibility of Pakistan purchasing it;  the dynamics of India’s evolving relations with Russia, China and US.
