New Delhi, March 2: The Indian Air Force would be unaffected by US sanctions against Russia, and India’s relations with both countries are solid, Vice Chief Air Marshal Sandeep Singh said on Wednesday.
“We know the geopolitical situation is difficult, Our relations with Russia will continue,” Air Marshal Singh said at a press briefing in Delhi.
Notably on February 24, Russia launched a military operation against Ukraine. Following the offensive, Western countries, especially the United States, imposed severe economic and other penalties on Russia.
“Three IAF aircraft have departed to evacuate stranded citizens,” said the Indian Air Force Vice Chief.
He also said the evacuation operations will run round the clock till all Indians are brought back.
