In a first, India sends defence attachés to African nations, Armenia, Philippines

India is sending military representatives, known as defence attachés, to several new countries, including some in Africa, Poland, Armenia, and the Philippines. This is happening as tensions between nations rise again. This also shows that India is paying more attention to Africa. India is increasing its military involvement and wants to build stronger strategic relationships, especially because China is becoming more active in Africa.
