India’s Modi makes first Russia visit since Ukraine invasion
Al Jazeera
The Indian leader treads a fine line between maintaining a long-standing relationship with Moscow and courting closer ties with the West.
India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi has arrived in Moscow for a two-day visit, his first since Russia sent troops into Ukraine – an action that has complicated the relationship between the longtime partners and pushed Russia closer to India’s rival, China.
Modi was set to have dinner with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday, followed by talks at the Kremlin on Tuesday.
“I look forward to reviewing all aspects of bilateral cooperation with my friend President Vladimir Putin and sharing perspectives on various regional and global issues,” said Modi in a statement.
“We seek to play a supportive role for a peaceful and stable region.”
