Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday arrived in Russian capital Moscow to attend the 22nd India-Russia Annual Summit. He had earlier said that he is looking forward to reviewing all aspects of bilateral cooperation with “friend Vladimir Putin.” He further said that both the leaders will “seek to play a supportive role for a peaceful and stable region.” This is Modi’s first visit to Russia since Moscow invaded Ukraine in February 2022. According to Foreign Secretary Vinay Kwatra, the two leaders will share perspectives on “regional and global developments of mutual interest.”
