India, Oman strengthen Defence Ties

According to a statement released by the Defence Ministry, India and Oman on Sunday signed four key agreements focusing on defence cooperation. During the Defence Minister's visit to Oman, both countries observed that their bilateral strategic partnership relies on defence cooperation. Manohar Parrikar visited Oman from May 20-22 at the invitation of minister of Defence Affairs Badr Bin Saud Bin Harib Al Busaidi.

Introduction
Relations between India and Oman

Trade and people-to-people ties between India and Oman have been existing since several millenia. The first Ambassador of India arrived in Muscat in 1973 and the Embassy of Oman was established in New Delhi in 1976. Both countries conducted joint military exercises in 2006 and signed a defense agreement thereafter. Politically, Oman has always supported permanent membership of India at the UN Security Council.

Existing Bilateral Agreements

Some prominent existing bilateral agreements between the Republic of India and Sultanate of Oman are MoUs on Combating Crime, Cooperation in Agriculture, Civil Aviation, Cultural Cooperation, Avoidance of Double Taxation, Bilateral Investment Promotion and Protection, Treaty of Extradition etc.
