520 _aSince 2014, the India-Russia nuclear partnership has evolved against the backdrop of shifting global power dynamics and growing strategic uncertainty. Nalinie Sharma and Malkiat Singh asks: how do systemic pressures and domestic considerations combine to shape the trajectory of this cooperation? It demonstrates how external factors—such as major power rivalries, US-Russia tensions, and Western sanctions—intersect with domestic imperatives, including India’s energy security needs as well as Russia’s ambition to consolidate its role as a major nuclear exporter and secure stable markets. The partnership is evident in the Kudankulam project, new agreements to build floating nuclear power plants, joint ventures in third countries and Russia’s support for India’s NSG membership. The second part, dealing mostly with future plans and prospects will be featured in the following issue. – Reproduced https://www.worldaffairsjournal.com/content.ph
