It's said that the Indian Navy/Airforce was ready to launch a Kamikaze attack on the US Fleet in 1971 if they try to hit INS VIKRANT and to break the blockade by Indian Navy

I was in college, I remember that very clearly. Then there was a cartoon in the news paper. First the ship coming with all the flags. Next a dog going back with face down and tail between his legs. It was funny at that time. I live abroad but never forget how Russia helped us.

Thanks India for 1971
Love from Bangladesh ❤

US supported Pakistan during the Bangladesh Liberation War due to its strategic interests in South Asia. Pakistan’s image as an anti-communist and pro-American country helped serve the United States’ strategic interests in South Asia. Besides dampening the threat of communism and standing as a hurdle to India’s interests, Pakistan provided a valuable conduit for the US opening to China in the early 1970s. The US’ opening to China was being facilitated by India’s north-western neighbor. The Pakistani channel of talks between the United States (US) and China would have collapsed if the US had publicly condemned human rights violations and atrocities by Pakistan’s army against the people of East Pakistan (now Bangladesh), former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has revealed in a recent interview with Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic

US is always gangster until Russia intervenes 😂😂😂

[Melanie-ropl]

Whatttt!??? How come I NEVER knew or even heard of this before!?? Thanks for sharing

[ShinieGenie]

that's why India is still with Russia... they are the one who supported them when they needed the most, unlike America just their when you have oil

[RKIE]

This is the reason why we Indians always support Russia, no matter what we will always stand with our russian friends, whereas the west is cunning and opportunistic

[christianfreedom-seeker]

It is sad that the US didn't bring India over to it's side after Indian Independence. Things are thawing between the US and India thank goodness. Backing Pakistan was a MAJOR screwup considering what we got in return.

[victorsy]

This is the reason why we Indians will always be grateful to Russia unlike the two face US

[sandipdas]

At that era Russia 🇷🇺 supported India 🇮🇳 militarily and in this era India 🇮🇳 is supporting Russia 🇷🇺 strategically and economically. Iternal Friendship.❤

[rishikeshmishra]

More surprise Bangladeshis are supporting Pakistani in every cricket match and saying they are brothers!!! Really ???

[SteveSamillano]

And this is why the Indians are so loyal to Russia.

[sanjayp]

Russia is always a best friend of India

[krisrocker]

Russia, lots of love from India. We are true friends who have stood the test of time. We stand by you every step of the way!
