MOSCOW, May 27. /TASS/. India has a long history of successful military-technical cooperation with Russia and has no plans to stop importing Russian arms, Mithilesh Kumar, a member of the upper house of the Indian parliament, told TASS.

"India has been purchasing weapons from Russia for a long time, continues to import them, and will never stop this process. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is pursuing an independent policy. India plans to localize the production of French Rafale fighters and Russian Su fighters, as well as drones," the lawmaker, who recently visited Russia, said.
