“Iran is an important neighbor and crucial trade partner for India, and also a major source of our energy supplies.”-S M Krishna, External Affairs Minister of India
31 May 2012, after a meeting between Iranian and Indian officials, India made it clear that Iran was India’s number one source for oil!
Indian officials are looking to Iran for other economic deals, as India considers Iran the economic gateway to Central Asia. S M Krishna said Iran was also the economic key to the whole world!
The two countries also discussed “threats” being made against them.
Iran has invited India to attend the upcoming Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) Summit in August. NAM consists of countries that do not kowtow to the United States/British Empire.
