India-US relations, also referred to as Indian-American or Indo-American relations.
Explanation:
Bilateral relations between India and Russia are Indo-Russian foreign policy. The Cold War has seen close military, army, economic, and diplomatic relations between India and the Soviet Union (USSR). Russia has retained its strong ties with India after the fall of the Soviet Union, and this has led to a special friendship. Both Russia and India call this relationship "a strategic alliance unique and privileged". The bilateral relationship has seen growth and development progress, owing to the bonhomie shared by the country leaders, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Vladimir Putin.
