US to make India into naval logistics hub for Indo-Pac region

Speaking to reporters during a 22 June DoD briefing, a spokesperson stated that the strengthening defence ties between the US and India was part of a “wide-ranging strategic partnership” in which military and security cooperation would become “central to our strategic relationship”.
