Russia has delayed the delivery of the S-400 air defense system to India, a move that has sparked discussions about the future of bilateral defense cooperation between the two nations. According to a source, the delay is linked to Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine, which has strained its international relations. This postponement highlights the growing complexities in Russia-India defense ties, as the two countries navigate an increasingly volatile geopolitical landscape. The S-400, a key component of Russia’s advanced military technology, was expected to be delivered to India as part of a major arms deal. However, the logistics and political implications of the delay have raised questions about the sustainability of the partnership.
