BRICS: in the Mirror of Times. The role of the USSR in the events of the third Indo-Pakistani war of 1971

In 1971, a bloody war broke out between India and Pakistan. The USSR became a country that swung at a seemingly hopeless undertaking - to act as a mediator in resolving the conflict. What was the cause of the confrontation and what role did the Soviet Navy play in the events of the Third Indo-Pakistani War?

We will talk about this and more in the studio of the "BRICS: In the Mirror of Times" project with Aleksey Kupriyanov, Candidate of Historical Sciences, Head of the Centre of the Indian Ocean Region of the National Research Institute of World Economy and International Relations (IMEMO) of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

The joint TV BRICS and GAUGN project received grant support from the Russian Ministry of Education and Science under the federal project "Popularisation of Science and Technology".
