India and Russia are coordinating arrangements for President Vladimir Putin to attend the 23rd India-Russia Annual Summit during the opening week. Deputy National Security Advisor Pawan Kapoor confirmed Tuesday that both governments maintain regular bilateral discussions at senior levels and during international gatherings. The nations have demonstrated sustained partnership through recent diplomatic engagements between National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and Russian Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu in August.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi told Putin that 140 million Indians await his December arrival during their meeting at last month's Shanghai Cooperation Organisation Summit. Modi emphasized that bilateral cooperation serves regional stability and global peace while welcoming efforts to resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Putin acknowledged contributions from India and other strategic partners toward facilitating a settlement to the Ukrainian crisis during his SCO Summit remarks.
