Promising “developments” in the India-Russia relationship in the next few months, Foreign Secretary Harsh Shringla said he discussed a number of regional and international issues in Moscow on Wednesday, which included cooperation at the Security Council, the situation in Afghanistan and countering COVID-19. Mr. Shringla was in Moscow to discuss preparations for an expected visit by Russian President Vladimir Putin for the India-Russia summit later this year, as well as the next summit of the Brazil- Russia-India-China-South Africa (BRICS), due to be hosted by India in 2021.
“There is a lot that is happening in the relationship. It is a very, very important relationship for both countries and I think we will see some developments in the next few months that would reinforce the close and strategic partnership that we both enjoy,” said Mr. Shringla after meeting Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and delegation-level talks headed by Deputy Foreign Minister Igor Morgulov.
