India-us Logistic Agreement

The key logistics defence pact signed between India and the United States of America earlier this week will make joint military operations between the two countries more efficient, the Pentagon said today.

India has formally become a military ally of the US after signing a Logistics Agreement that will allow American armed forces to access and use Indian military bases, the CPI-M said on Tuesday.

China today downplayed the Indo-IS logistics defence pact as "normal cooperation" even as its state media warned that India's attempts to join US' alliance could "irritate" China, Pakistan, or even Russia and bring "strategic troubles" for New Delhi.

Hours before India and United States of America signed a logistics exchange memorandum, allowing the two countries to use each other's military facilities for refueling and replenishment, an editorial in the China's state-run newspaper Global Times warned that such a move would exacerbate tensions in Asia.

India and the US on Monday signed an important agreement to use each other's land, air and naval bases for repair and resupply, taking a step toward reinforcing defence ties as they seek to counter an aggressive China.

India and the US on Monday signed an important agreement that will make the two nations logistical allies and enable both the militaries to use each other's assets and bases for repair and replenishment of supplies.

Playing down India's decision to sign a logistic agreement with the US, Chinese state media today said that the proposed deal is stalled because of distrust between the two, as India wants to be the "most beautiful woman" wooed by all, especially Washington and Beijing.

The United States and India are close to a breakthrough on a defense logistics deal that has taken more than a decade to negotiate, a reflection of closer ties as China's military muscle grows.
