India's burgeoning relationship with Israel since January 1992 is an exemplar of India's post-Cold War foreign policy practice. From a relationship described as 'stillborn for 40 years'' to the broad-spectrum partnership a quarter century later, India-Israel relations ties have developed well, pushed by a rapid expansion of defence ties. The growth of the India-Israel partnership is a testimony to the sagacity shown by Indian and Israeli leaders in steering the relationship forward, despite the baggage of a fraught and convulsive neighbourhood.
