To date, India has received the equivalent of $14 billion in U.S. economic assistance ($57 billion in today's dollars). -
LINKBetween fiscal years 1965 and 1974 the U.S. and IFIs provided India with $7.6 billion in foreign aid while India spent $16.4 billion on military build-up. Thus the foreign aid provided enough capital inflow to allow India to spend such a large per centage of her budget on defense. - LINK

Whats wrong with that? They do need to defend themselves dont they? In 1965 and again in 1971 India fought
wars with pakistan.

Well, we all know you can’t buy friends.
But what the US Govt has yet to figure-out is that you can’t buy-off enemies, either.
