watching discussions from mumbai. nikhil, give us the highlights of what's happened so far and we look forward to today? from india's perspective the bilateral talks between the prime minister and vladimir putin were closely watched yesterday where india reiterated diplomacy was the only solution forward to the war in ukraine. today that focus will shift to talks between xijinping, focus will shift to talks between xi jinping, the chinese president and prime minister modi and this comes off the back of both countries announcing they will disengage odd de—escalate the conflict in the norman —— northern himalayas which had led to soldiers on both sides being killed in 2020. from a more multilateral perspective i think it would be interesting to get an update on the financial architecture that vladimir putin has been

proposing as a counterbalance to western payments and trading ecosystems such as swift and this is an expanded bricks session with countries like iran i'm a bit so it would be interesting to see in the language of the joint communique language of thejoint communique if there is anything on the war in israel. we believe in the bilateral that narendra modi had with the president he expressed concerns about the escalating situation of the conflict in west asia. india and russia have strong economic links. has that been under pressure because of the war in ukraine? on the contrary, this is a relationship that is only strengthened. bilateral ties between the two have gone to $65 billion in 2022, a doubling of sorts. india has continued to buy discounted russian oil despite western sanctions are not adhering to the western sanctions and that has led to the economy of russia are remaining stable through the

course of the war and even during this bilateral we saw between narendra modi and vladimir putin they agreed to deepen collaboration in areas such as nuclear energy and finance. india has been clear it will not take sides and it will continue to maintain an economic relationship with russia which it calls its historic ally. boeing's largest union will be voting on a new wage deal later on wednesday. over 30,000 workers have been on strike for over a month, costing the company billions. but that's the only crisis that new chief executive kelly ortberg will have to deal with as the bbc�*s theo leggett explains. for boeing the stakes are climbing ever higher. it is haemorrhaging billions of dollars thanks to a safety crisis, delays to aircraft programmes and a damaging walkout by workers in its washington state titans. the 6—week—old strikers paralyse production of the bestselling 737 as well as the triple seven and the 767 freighter.-
