New Delhi: Russian Ambassador Denis Alipov said on Monday that Russia will soon supply the third batch of S-400 surface-to-air missile systems to India. Alipov said, “It will be completed in the near future. Both parties are committed to completing the deal and we will definitely do that. No one can stop it.
The Russian ambassador was responding to a question on the supply of the missile system at a conference on India-Russia relations. Russia has supplied the first two consignments of the missile system. Asked whether he sees any role for India in ending the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, Alipov said Moscow is ready for any serious talks to end it diplomatically. Is.
He said, “As our foreign minister says, we are ready for any serious talks, whoever offers them. There is nothing like that now. If India wants to play a more active role in this, we will certainly listen to India very carefully and we will consider all proposals very seriously. But whether India wants to be involved in this very complex conflict or not, I don’t think I should be asked.”
The Russian ambassador described his country’s defense ties with India as unprecedented. He said, “Licensed production of T-90 tanks, SU-30MKI, AK-203 Assault Rifles and a host of other arms and equipment in India is fully consistent with the ‘Make in India’ and ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ initiatives. The ambassador said, “The exclusive joint venture on the supersonic cruise missile BrahMos is ideal. Russia and India are committed to all agreements, including the deal for the modern S-400 Triumf air defense system. Billion dollar deal was signed.
