India’s
$5 billion agreement to purchase Russia’s S-400 air defense system creates a
potential wedge between the U.S. and India.

the India-Russia summit in Sochi this past summer, a pivotal Eurasian arms
agreement is emerging that is creating an opportunity to weaken the
relationship between India and the United States. 23 bilateral agreements are

Russian-made S-400 air defense systems. The S-400 air defense systems have a
range of up to 250 miles, and are capable of stealth aircraft detection.
