Semyachkin, A.A. The modern condition of the Russian-Indian relations in the sphere of military and technical cooperation.

Abstract: This article is devoted to the evaluation of the current situation in the sphere of Russian – Indian relations, and the changes which were introduced into them by the visit of President V.V. Putin which took place in December 2012. It is noted, that the foreign political relations of Russia and India are developing in two main formats – as a strategic partnership in support of national interests in the international arena, and as a regional centralism, which is aimed on limiting the role of non-regional players, who wish to become a dominating political force in the relevant region.
