US defence secretary Robert M Gates is in India, part of strengthening the defence ties between the two countries. His visit is seen as the aftermath of the nuclear deal between India and US being stalled.
Gates stresses to strengthen the security ties in the situation where India is continuously renewing its arms and ammunition.
Whatever the facts or what media says he is in our country to make a huge weapon sale. US see India as its primary market to sell its ammunition. Gates also pressed the case of US defence firms competing for multi-billion-dollar deals with Indian government. This includes a huge Ten billion dollar fighter jet deal.
Security analysts predict that India’s budget for weapons purchase could grow to a huge 40 billion dollar over coming years.
Now it is this time that India has to be super-careful. US can make ore destroy any economy. They see India not only as an emerging economy but also as an economy which can pose a threat to its own.
CAREFUL INDIA, US SHOULD BE KEPT AT A SAFE DISTANCE.
