Indian Ambassador to Russia, Vinay Kumar on July 07 gave insights on Prime Minister Narendra’s visit to Russia from July 08. Speaking to ANI, he said, “he’s visit is very significant and it is taking place after a gap of three years. A lot has changed around the world in these three years and also our relations have expanded. Russia is now one of the very important sources of crude energy resources in India. Trade has expanded in other areas too. This visit becomes very important for leaders to exchange views on all these developments in the bilateral relationship and also other issues of mutual interest. The program elements include a private meeting with President Putin, delegation-level talks, restricted talks, a luncheon hosted by the President for the Prime Minister and his delegation, a visit to an exhibition center, and also an exchange of documents which we are preparing to sign. The PM will also address a gathering of the Indian community who are eagerly looking forward to PM Narendra Modi's visit to Moscow after a gap of 9 years.”
