India to supply BrahMos missiles to Indonesia

JAKARTA: (Jul 7) Supplying BrahMos missiles to the Indonesian military, boosting maritime security, and strengthening critical mineral supply chains emerged as key outcomes from talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto on Tuesday.

The two sides inked nearly a dozen agreements to significantly bolster two-way cooperation in several areas, including critical minerals, technology, food security, medicines and maritime security.

Modi landed in Jakarta on Monday to a red-carpet welcome in the first leg of his three-nation tour to shore up trade and security cooperation under the framework of the India-Indonesia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership of 2018.
