The article discusses the growing defense partnership between the U.S. and India, highlighted by a recent meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Donald Trump. They announced plans to establish a 10-year framework for the U.S.-India Major Defense Partnership, aimed at deepening military cooperation across various domains. This partnership is seen as essential for enhancing India's conventional deterrence capabilities, especially given its standing as a major defense purchaser globally. Experts view this agreement as a crucial aspect of contemporary diplomacy, reflecting the increasing significance of defense cooperation in international relations.
In a joint statement at the White House, the two leaders announced plans to sign a new 10-year framework later this year for the U.S.-India Major Defense Partnership.
Defense sector is a big money, and India happens to be one of the top buyers in the world, said Lt. Gen. Vinod Bhatia.
The meeting signaled that defense diplomacy is the core of diplomacy these days, Bhatia said.
Modi and Trump pledged to elevate military cooperation across all domains - air, land, sea, space, and cyberspace.
