The meeting will happen around the same time that a Nato summit will be held in Washington.
NEW DELHI - A visit to Russia by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, expected within days, could help dispel worries that New Delhi is getting too close to the West and further away from Moscow, ceding space to China, analysts said.
“It will be a good opportunity for Moscow to project in the media the image of President Putin receiving a leader of a country like India in the context of the Washington summit,” said Mr Aleksei Zakharov, a Moscow-based expert on India. India has also been seeking to distance itself from its largest arms supplier, Russia, as the Ukraine war hobbled the latter’s ability to supply munitions and spares.
Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said regional security and global security issues always figured high on the agenda of such meetings.
