"We don't like when some quarters outside India or vested interest inside India implant the idea that something is wrong (with defence ties between Russia and India). If something is wrong then our military portfolio with India would not have exceeded USD 20 billion," Kadakin said here.
Calling the media reports that Russia might stop technology transfer and instead sell military equipment to India as "wrong", he said, "We gave you first MiGs. In future also we will continue doing it. We will together produce the fifth generation fighters along with India."
The two countries signed defence contracts worth USD 5-6 billion last year, the Ambassador added.
He also said that Russia did not like it when it was bracketed with other countries vis a vis nuclear cooperation with India. "Even while expanding the nuclear programme (with India) we are against being put on same shelf as other countries," he said.
