India-US Relation: Prime Minister Narendra Modi During the US visit, a big deal has been signed, under which American company GE Aerospace will make fighter jet engines in India in association with Hindustan Aeronautical Limited (HAL). Under the deal, F 414 jet engines will be manufactured in India. After this deal, China has come under tension. An article was also written in China’s official newspaper Global Times regarding the increasing proximity between India and America, in which India was warned to stay away from America. Let us know how true this fear of China is. Are Indo-US relations developing keeping China in mind?
Hindustan Times has quoted a former State Department official as saying that the growing relations between India and the US have nothing to do with China, but Beijing is trying to show that the differences between the world’s two largest democracies Relations are built to target the neighbor across the border.
PM Modi received a warm welcome in America
A senior official has been quoted as saying that India made economic reforms with the US in 1990 and after bilateral relations and technology transfer in the last two decades, has now taken steps towards cooperation in the defense sector.
In fact, China has been most jealous of the way US President Joe Biden welcomed him during the recent state visit of PM Modi. Not only the jet engine deal, India has also signed an agreement with the US for the MQ-9B drone, after which India will have the most dangerous drone in the world. With the arrival of this drone, India will be able to monitor China along the land border as well as in the sea. This deal is also stinging in the eyes of China.
Drone deal is also the reason
Since the arrival of the Predator drone, the military imbalance created between India and China will end to a great extent. Equipped with air-to-ground missiles and very accurate in targeting, this drone will prove to be a game changer and will compete with the armed drones of China that it has given to Pakistan. China is not able to tolerate this and that is the reason why it has started spreading propaganda regarding the relationship between India and America.
