Bet on Russia as long-term, reliable partner not good: US warns India

PM Modi's recent visit to Russia and his hug to President Vladimir Putin seemed to have irked the United States. US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said, "Russia is becoming closer to China.

And … Prime Minister Modi, of course, has profound concerns about the potential for Chinese aggression against India."
