India’s place on the world stage has been earned by honesty   I write in reference to your article Ignoring US, India buys ­Russia’s S-400 air defence ­system (October 6). During the recent visit of Russian ­President Vladimir Putin to India, Prime Minister ­Narendra Modi signed a deal with Moscow for a highly advanced air defence system. It hints at decades of strong relations between India and Russia. Despite the looming threat of US sanctions, India has nevertheless penned the deal. I am of the view that India is well liked on the­ ­international stage because it is a straightforward and honest nation. This is another indicator of that.
