Earlier in January this year, the 21st Edition of the Bilateral Naval Exercise between India and France – Exercise Varuna was held on the Western Seaboard. The bilateral exercise between the two navies was initiated in 1993, the Ministry of Defence said in a press release. However, it was christened as ‘VARUNA’ in 2001 and has become a hallmark of the India – France strategic bilateral relationship.
India and France have “close and friendly relations,” according to Indian Embassy in France. In 1998, the two countries entered into a Strategic Partnership which is emblematic of their convergence of views on a range of international issues apart from close and growing bilateral ties.
