India and Russia have taken a major step forward in their defence partnership by agreeing to allow limited military deployments on each other’s territory. Under this arrangement, both nations can station up to 3,000 personnel at a time, marking a significant deepening of strategic and operational cooperation.

The agreement - published on Russia’s official legal portal - also allows for the simultaneous deployment of up to 10 military aircraft and 5 naval warships by either side.

It further establishes a structured framework governing the presence of troops, ships, and aircraft, while detailing provisions related to logistics, technical assistance, and operational support for visiting forces.

In Simple Terms- India and Russia are not building bases they are just allowing each other to temporarily use military facilities when needed.
