Calling for greater cooperation and collaboration among friendly countries, Singh said, “Often we interact as buyers and sellers wherein our relations are at a transactional level. However, at another level, we forge our relationships beyond buyer-and-seller relationships to a level of industrial collaboration. We may have research and development, or production collaboration.” Defence Ministers and senior ranking defence officials from a number of friendly countries are taking part in the show.Singh said as they enhance the depth of their relations, their success will soar to greater heights. “For us, there is no Indian security or peace in isolation. Security, stability and peace are shared constructs that transcend national borders. Presence of our friends from foreign countries is a testimony to the fact that our partners share our vision of one earth, one family and one future,” he said, adding that they need to work together to face current uncertainties and overcome new challenges.
