DSA Press Release: October 2014 Issue A dynamic Indo-US strategic partnership is in a real sense the missing piece of a worldwide jigsaw puzzle that has been eluding global peace for decades. No two countries have more to offer the world than India and the US. This they can do by coming together on a mutually agreed common platform. Each brings onto the table advantages of geography, institutional strength, professional armed forces, talented manpower and India's enormous economic potential coupled with US market leadership. All of these ingredients combine to make the diplomatic cake wholesome. But, even as the world awaits the application of the icing, there is one missing ingredient which threatens to delay, rather than prevent, this strategic partnership from acquiring its logical role. We look forward to another remarkably momentous year of Defence and Security – a time to embrace the challenge of creating a military industrial complex capable of meeting not only our domestic needs but also the requirements of other friendly nations. India's struggle for self-reliance in defence reminds us of the musk deer that wanders around in the forest without realising that the musk is within him. An increased FDI could be considered a catalyst for the Indian defence producers to face the challenges of designing and developing weapons and equipment with indigenous expertise and domestic resources.

How Does The Indo-US Strategic Partnership Figure In The US Pivot Shifting To Asia
Amb Dr Kanwal Sibal
The strategic independence of our China policy is being affirmed by the completion of another trilateral US-Japan-India naval exercise only recently, Mr Modi's visit to the US in late September and the Chinese president's visit to India earlier in the same month. That Mr Modi is not nursing the visa snub administered to him by the US for several years and has decided to accept president Obama's invitation without delay shows the pragmatic approach of the prime minister to foreign relations …" To read more please follow the DSA web link: http://www.dsalert.co.in/files/October_2014_Amb_Dr_Kanwal_Sibal.pdf

Fauji Farishtey!

India-US Strategic Partnership: The Way Forward
Amb Ashok Sajjanhar and Anuradha Sajjanhar
Both Modi and Obama have the capacity to steer Indo-US partnership to become the defining relationship of the 21st century as Obama himself had described it during his visit to India in March 2010. Since then Obama has become a much weaker and less powerful leader on the world stage. Modi on the other hand has just entered the international stage with the resounding support of the Indian electorate behind him … To read more please follow the DSA web link: http://www.dsalert.co.in/files/October_2014_Amb_Ashok_Sajjanhar_Anuradha_Sajjanhar.pdf
The Indian Army's Expectations From The IAF
Lt Gen Syed Ata Hasnain (Retd)
As modernisation continues and threats multiply, the IAF can expect a much larger role in thus far untested realms such as cyber warfare and network centric warfare. While individual service requirements will need to be respected these are the times in which the leadership of both services need to be sensitive to the requirements of integration and Jointmanship which will be much more demanding and intense … To read more please follow the DSA web link: http://www.dsalert.co.in/files/October_2014_Lt_Gen_Syed_Ata_Hasnain_(Retd).pdf
