To spread: India joined the military exercises of Russia and Belarus

"Is a alarm": India sent an elite unit for military training of the Russian Federation and Belarus

To spread: India joined the military exercises of Russia and Belarus "West 2025", which simulate a conflict with neighboring NATO countries and include launching ballistic missiles and imitation of air strikes near Poland and Lithuania. All this happens against the background of a deterioration of the relationship between Delhi and Washington, writes The Times. The Indian Ministry of Defense said it has sent 65 servicemen, including the most revered unit of the Indian army - the Kumaon Regiment.

"They are stationed at the mully landfill, about 40 miles west of Nizhny Novgorod, far from the borders of NATO," the material reads. India officials have stated that they want to "strengthen defense cooperation and promote friendly relations between India and Russia, thereby supporting the spirit of cooperation and mutual trust.

" The Indian Ministry of Defense emphasized that troops would participate in "joint training, tactical training and developing special weapons skills" together with their Russian colleagues. Journalists recalled that India participated in the event "West" in 2022 before the full -scale invasion of Russian troops in Ukraine, and also participated in several other Russian military exercises.
