Ahead of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to India next month, Moscow has sought assurances from New Delhi that its US-procured equipment would not be used in a way that could compromise the capabilities of Russia-made weapon arsenal already with the Indian military.

Nearly 65 per cent of Indian military arsenal is Russian-made or has originated in the erstwhile Soviet Union.



The Russian concern comes in the wake of India signing the Communications Compatibility and Security Agreement (COMCASA) during the 2+2 meeting of the foreign and defence ministers of India and the US in New Delhi on 6 September.
