India and Russia Sign Deal to Share Civil Emergency Alerts From Space
Despite pressure from the West, bilateral relations between India and Russia have deepened in recent years, with trade hitting record highs of $65 billion in 2023. Areas of close cooperation include the space, nuclear energy and defence sectors.
India and Russia have announced an new deal to share warnings of emergencies gathered by satellites.
The agreement signed on Wednesday will boost the capabilities of the two nations in their efforts to protect their respective assets in space. Additionally, it would
also enhance their intelligence gathering and surveillance capabilities.
The second meeting of the joint Russian-Indian commission for cooperation in emergency management took place on 28 August.
Russian Minister of Emergency Situations Alexander Kurenkov and Indian Internal Affairs Minister Nityananda Rai discussed the interaction between the two emergency departments, the Russian ministry said in a statement.
It added that the two parties discussed cooperation
in the areas of disaster prevention and response and fire control.
Kurenkov noted that Russia is a member of the International Charter on Space and Major Disasters.
"We receive high- and medium-detail satellite images from the space agencies of countries party to the Charter, including India," the Russian minister said. "We are interested in sharing such information, including technologies for processing and analysis."
Representatives of both states have approved the plan for 2025 and 2026, and agreed a third meeting of the commission in India in 2026.
