Putin's visit to India

[aupmanyav]

Vlad Putin returns to Russia today after a one-day visit to India for the annual Russia-India summit. I think we had a big list to buy from Russia - Su57s, more S-400s, S-500s, AK-630 air defense guns, missiles. TU-160 bombers (which perhaps we do not need) and tanks were on offer. But the joint declaration does not mention anything about it except Russia saying that it will help India to modernize its weaponry. The deal was worth some 10 billion USD. Is that to avoid a heart-burn to Trump? Or that the deal did not fructify?

Russia, however will provide portable small modular reactors to India for its energy needs.

Because if it isn't in the joint declaration, the US won't know it's happening.
