India to send tri-service contingent for Russian military parade

印度将派遣三军仪仗队方队参加俄罗斯阅兵式

NEW DELHI: For the first time, an Indian military contingent comprising members of all 3 services will march through Moscow's Red Square on June 24. In 2015, the only time Indian forces joined the military parade, the participation was restricted to the Indian army.

新德里：6月24日，由三个军种组成的印度仪仗队方队将首次走过莫斯科红场。印度军队唯一一次参加俄国阅兵式是在2015年，当时只有印度陆军参加。

The Russian parade is held every year on Victory Day (May 9), which marks the surrender of Nazi Germany in 1945, but has been delayed this year because of the novel coronavirus.

俄罗斯每年在胜利日(5月9日)举行阅兵式，纪念1945年纳粹德国投降，但今年由于新冠疫情而推迟。

PM Narendra Modi had been invited as a special guest for May 9 event this year. With Modi unlikely to attend the delayed event in these times, the government is ho to make up for his absence by sending a tri-service contingent to take part in the parade which showcases Russia's military might.

莫迪总理受邀作为特别嘉宾参加原定于5月9日举行的阅兵式。由于莫迪不太可能出席推迟后的阅兵式，政府希望通过派遣三军方队参加这场展示俄罗斯军事实力的阅兵式来弥补莫迪的缺席。

A tri-service contingent comprising about 75-80 will depart for Moscow on June 19. President Vladimir Putin had invited Modi for the Victory Day celebrations during their meeting in Vladivostok last year.

一支由75-80人组成的三军方队将于6月19日启程前往莫斯科。去年在海参崴会晤期间，普京总统曾邀请莫迪参加胜利日庆祝活动。

Russia, in fact, has invited several others heads of state and government for the parade as the event this year marks the 75th anniversary of the "Victory over Nazism". Diplomatic sources said while details were still being worked out, the parade, depending upon the time available, was likely to include a mention of the contribution made by Indian soldiers in the Great Patriotic War.

事实上，俄罗斯已经邀请了其他一些国家和政府的首脑参加今年的阅兵式，此次阅兵式恰好纪念“战胜纳粹主义”75周年。外交消息人士称，尽管细节仍在制定中，但阅兵式上可能会提到印度士兵在“伟大卫国战争”中的贡献

Despite Russia's deep military and political ties with , and its own relations with the US, India continues to look at Moscow as a key partner. There has been enough political signaling too to that effect recently, apart from the commitment to constantly upgrade defence cooperation with Russia, including to jointly develop military equipment.

尽管俄罗斯与有着深厚的军事和政治关系，印度自身也与美国关系密切，但印度仍将莫斯科视为一个关键合作伙伴。除了承诺不断升级与俄罗斯的防务合作(包括联合开发军事装备)之外，最近也有足够多的政治信号表明了这一点。

Earlier this month, the day PM Narendra Modi spoke to US President Donald Trump about the Sino-Indian border standoff, foreign secretary Harsh Shringla also held a meeting with Russian ambassador Nikolay Kudashev and briefed him on the issue as first reported by ToI on June 4. In February this year, while the Trump visit was still on, India allowed 2 Crimean leaders, both proscribed by the US, to visit India.

本月早些时候，莫迪总理与美国总统唐纳德·特朗普就中印边境对峙问题进行了交谈，当天，印度外交秘书哈什·夏斯林格拉还会见了俄罗斯大使库达舍夫，并向他简要介绍了这一问题。今年2月，在特朗普访问期间，印度允许两位被美国禁止的克里米亚领导人访问印度。

Defence though remains the most significant aspect of India's relations with Russia with both sides looking to encourage joint manufacturing of equipment under India's Make-in-India programme and through transfer of technology.

不过，国防仍是印度与俄罗斯关系中最重要的方面，双方都希望通过印度的“印度制造”计划和技术转让，鼓励双方联合制造武器装备。

The 2 countries had said in a joint statement after the Vladivostok summit last year that they "recognized" the requirement of an institutional arrangement for reciprocal provision of logistic support and services for the armed forces and tha they had agreed to prepare a framework for cooperation on it.

去年海参崴峰会后，两国在一份联合声明中表示，他们“认识到”有必要作出制度性安排，相互向武装部队提供后勤支持和服务，并同意为此制定一个合作框架。

The 2 countries continue to encourage military to military cooperation through military political dialogue and joint military exercises. They last year carried out second joint tri-service exercise INDRA.

两国继续通过军事政治对话和联合军演鼓励两军合作。去年，两国举行了第二次联合三军演习。
