the well the leads of the world's most populous country is meeting right now with the leader of the walls, largest country. these to have enjoyed for a very long time, a close personal friendship, marked by a trust that is really very obviously spilled out into the country to country approach. i am here ready to discuss all the ins and outs of this longstanding time, tested partnerships and friendship. they have sat down in the narrow format to the big apply lock tools have kicked off before i bring you through the highlights of what's already being said. as the was greeted with the press and the ceremonial pool in the kremlin, just behind me, i just do want to point out for myself, noted t, saying the 17 times we have now that you may have not in minutes. my 6 time here and russia, very interesting me. he also said he seems to be enjoying

a bit the scandals. he said the walls is watching. let's see the highlight. some not sold a moment that they had with the press before they stopped the doors and got down to business. i'm sure, you know, said today, relations have a character of privilege to strategic partnership. we remain in contact to l times and we focus mainly on developing trade and economic ties. we closely cut the rate on the international arena in, in the international multilateral organizations, the un and, and such organizations as the as ceo and breaks. we know each other for a very long time, and i know that you devote all your life to the implementation of this idea of spring putting, being in state, and also improving lives and on the indian people are kind of

the say, your excellency, i am deep times with brushing personally with you over the last 2 and a half decades. that's we have established these ties over these time. over the last 10 years, we've met to 10 times and this is my 6th, somebody's a to russia. and now what participate in the 22nd rushing the assignment. and it's a testimony to how close our account preparation is. and i can confidently say based on our previous experiences that we will continue to work together in the future. we are going to boast strength and deepen all the areas of our compilation, and we are going to accomplish new goals to retrieve new goals and

what uh to and correspond to and has a floating and specially for this momentous occasion on 2 lines. now 5 buttons and sharma who is really not that far away from me. she's in the crime. what was behind me see in fox might be able to give us some insight information because she's like that in the thick of it as those to me things continue that dialogue behind close tools. i mean, it runs and it's so of us these move relations between the 2 nations. is that really quite a few said when they speak to each other being that, like i said, in the thick of it, are you picking off any whispers? what are people speculating about the we're definitely be expecting the solid outcome from this 26 hour a long gone with it by the indian prime minister and arrange

a movie. and i'll just, you are in the whole just kremlin where i'm reporting from. we saw the range movie and all the mirror up with and speak to each other where all the indian for i'm and is still stressed on the fact that while the world was facing problems was there was still a balance in the was all friendship each. it basically was stable and sat down with that friendship we were working with are just as close to you, so he's stalking energy dx. now off the war, new queen started remembering the stop sequence set functions we've seen on your up, for example, dealing with a made sure and noisy price is even to build a solid full bathroom or to the india queen with age sa, strategic economy. ignoring all of the rest and twist and pressures, india continue to buy more and more discount. did russian quote from russia. and because of that, india has often said that it's because of india, that bill and no cheap prices to other words have over mainstream. so that's,

that's something that the indian so i'm going to send a range of moody was the big can deal lead, referring to also seeing that this is the wizard that the wall is very close. the watching. it is indeed in fact uh uh, the russian president automatically. we can also invited the indian form in his stuff. i'll for the brick summit which russia will be hosting later this year. and what i've been given to understand from my sources with names and foreign ministry is that the chances are that no range of moving we'll go for the app. so look at this, we in the 5 minutes and arrange a movie. perhaps we'll be making 2 trips to russia. this is so that is big in itself. big messaging also given the, the context to add that to d when the to lee does the engine farming is the out of the russian president. i'm meeting in the kremlin. we're seeing that in washington dc that would lead us convening for the nato anniversary. where do you claim in president also is in the

be just heard that he has expressed his huge disappointment with the indian crime and a scenario of the movie. the very fact that he's that he's here in russia, but the fact remains even now when the 20 to start them monday with talking to each other. for india, employment is still stressed on the fact that india believes that as to news shown to the, to clean conflict. this possible only to dialogue and diplomacy in the system. think that india has been stressing a point again. and again, in the last 2 years or so. so for some, the day is not ended yet. we are expecting go, uh, interesting outcomes from this particular wizard. of course, we're looking at trade defense corporation. we're also looking at stabilizing the energy inputs to india. uh so of course it is not or yes and we keep coming back to

when it's also a very interesting words and i'll just add you to verify how not impersonate invite to the red drug mode, the to the brick summit that will be taking place in the city of cause on this morning while somebody was meeting with the guy i asked for a committee, he announced that 2 more indian continents will be opened, one of which will be in cause on whether that will secret messaging or whether it's coincidence. here's tonight, but either way, that means for india and concepts and rushes up to a big deal, i will talk to you in the corresponds that runs in salma from the kremlin many times. well, like i was saying, the 2 now enclosed talks, well, they've had to spend quite a lot of time with each other over the last 24 hours yesterday evening. they have some informal chance of private dinner on today this morning before heading to the kremlin not to my pearson and in the rental mode. you made us stop off pretty for a bit of sight seeing at one of the most serious 12th exhibition and coat. so spots that as the old russian exhibition center at the vets and fox hawk,

i would say it's possible to wait the surgery at times. the lead is what leads us that towards the roof, have some affiliate which is dedicated to mis exhibition space for the elect to what coffee shop a library science typically bar trees, or to celebrate the latest achievements in the new to the industry. something that russia and india, i was very keen to be partnering off on all to use donald cool to it was actually that he wants to bring us a 1st hand report from the c as you can see behind me vladimir pulled and then or, and promoting have just made it to the ross adam exhibition where they're taking a tour of rushes scientific achievements. this is part of motives to day visit to moscow is the 2nd day of the to day visit. where yesterday they were able to meet bit more informally in the platinum or poor suburban residents. they had tea and

dinner there. and asset residents actually is less than recruitment, congratulated and rendered moody on his recent election victory and praised india for being such a big country and still being able to carry out a democratic elections and promote. he also, thanks vladimir putin for the warm welcome that he received here. and after they finish their tour of this exhibition of russia scientific achievements here at ross adam, they're going to be going straight to the kremlin for bilateral talks between both the russian and indian delegations. as well as one on one talks between vladimir approved and enter, enter moody, and at the top of the agenda, as we heard from a kremlin spokesperson, the retreat best called earlier, is going to be the energy sphere. because of course, russia is a huge ex, border of energy products to india. actually, between 20232024. the trade turnover between russia and india reached nearly

$65000000000.00 worth. and $61000000000.00 of that income are comprised of russian exports to india. and a large part of that significant part of that, i would say, even the majority comprises energy products. so this is actually something that's going to be talked about at these bilateral meetings. that are going to take place in the kremlin after this tour. as steve ross, adam exhibition is over. while we're joined now by alex a pretty. i don't know if he's had up to send to the asia pacific studies at the russian academy of science. it's great to have you with us. um, obviously the tools that just getting started, so we'll wait and see if they come to any agreements. what was the main thing for me agenda? one thing i do want to ask you about though. c president pearson very specifically said, prime minister motif, we appreciate your efforts to resolve the ukraine of crisis in

a peaceful means. do you think that that is a place full into talking to me? another non aligned globe themselves, a nation, maybe china, and we'll just act as a mediator in this context. i'm not true, as i see them can text is really only day training may be a something like uh, you know, causing a day to maybe as so as a ne funds that is trying to my country's uh, ending these. it'd be closer to each other in a bit to the table of color. it's uh in fact, and because india has nothing to assist in uh, continuing the soil because for renewal of course, because the shopping days, not enough. so 3 is the best and concert, for example, when they do as of chinese because 3 days has some benefit from this constantly

because so in that, in fact, this has cheap oil and gas and to personalize this. so because of rough and you don't know the east across from the economy, but as the same time for reading the, it's the inspect the set of problems because so it's thing again, citizens usually meet those concepts. it's some problems. so some financial firms and there's some or conversely it's sort of price. so more deep and 30 mendham government only done policies and in fact to impose sanctions on the roster, because clearing the it's not something you because in fact uh, india was think this situation due to the rockwell because the rock and was the closest thing done a lie and send me the lease, the media bank because it times yeah, we send this price. and so it's okay with this then. i mean, it's interesting you told me that about how this is not the 1st time that india is with standing pressure it's. it's quite fascinating and i think quite unique in the

global context how india is managed to navigate these 2 spaces of competing powers . all are sitting on 2 stools, you know, not condemning russia at a g 20 will. the swiss p summit, not subscribing to western functions, but also talking about how this is no time for one thing. we want this to end. um, what does it say about indian diplomacy that it manages to maintain a good partnership with everyone? i think it's most of this is of course it's about the indian diplomacy because indian diplomatic. so listening and diplomacy is a really, really i'm to have been reading on the phone and now he's in between us now. but in fact, it's the indian spence of strategic tone, and because he's, you've got to make is the key stone. okay. and um for the to reason. in fact, because so yeah, was so impressed by its foss. humans in particular for

rule brick, if raj, that so now is in denmark to ease. uh, yeah. uh we will no more. uh, spend the blog to fit sequences or for an interest. so for reading the, as a sense of me is this sense north of b on the live spots. so as i mean, the cell phone offending to me, so pursuing a fast so from i m. j from concept event. so something like to be miles to live. so in good use rated to be any volts o 4 months in the old blocks because it doesn't lead you to be involved in maybe someone's that ranch on some things and some, some, something like that. so it's development of friendship. yeah, i want to ask you something that the major is talking about a lot in their china relations. i mean, i'm really well how this affects russia,

because obviously for russia, both new tally and spacing sales for to check partnerships. and i think they consider themselves to have strategic partnerships as well. um, so how does russia navigate not? is it a diplomatic type, right? in 1st, it's not so because of so, policies in russia, india in china, has long needs a history of photos that relations up to the engine depends. so they can in fact have more of 1960, to some province on the border territorial dispute and so on. so on, so what does the same time china is so lucky a it was the main agent trade partner was this? yeah, maybe the 2nd mean get to open gente fondness. in fact, i tried musical and let me use the as close dice, easy to nicole in the end. uh, so for india, china is the main trade partner. and uh,

so some through total disputes. uh, it doesn't affect it straight straight is a try to know that because so each year, so we have it and you and you in new heights and there's a relations and now for actually it's not a problem because so it's russian position that our dynamic profile relations busy then the nickel, 5 relations with china. they. so any of this relations has a hole in the name. they doesn't connect this visit as jobs. so if i get back to the relations between the tele and most go specifically, you told obviously about the trades turnover between the 2 nations rack, who ties it's historic. it looks like that's coming to grove. yeah. on. yeah. do you think we're going to hit any announcements? may be all that going to come to any agreements about how to boost up 5, how to address the trade in balance may be focus on. there's new trade routes. if

not, we'll stop tonight. all the been open see routes. i would like to speak on items lease you but of course we'll see. i think some may be some papers on uh you may be in your a d. s about the increase in the list and all that. so the easy all the payments, nicholas over the half, you know, i think it over was it just have some problems with payments. so that ruble situation, and now we have to know of is it is so very profitable for russia was very proficient for us. and also for our business for india, and now we have our main a, our main problem is to increase the export to russia and maybe something like that . well, the send me conduct to industry maybe an hour that would be mutually beneficial for india to start enhancing that sex stuff and increases in pools. and so it's

a rush to degrade by the true. in fact, i'm fluid just to bose a nuclear plants. so it will be, so it's on the table and so is there a 6 you unit? so we don't know precise place and we will be in duncanville been your place. but the way it's of course, is the high road to cut the race was interesting that the real sought to direct, to general, visited a in the back in the, in, in january. so it definitely seems that discussion about that is definitely ramping up. i will. so chat with you, i've got feelings that we will hit the watch meet, cannot energy grades, cooperation may be a long time sky of uranium of the see russia is the 4th largest production for the producer of enriched rating. thank you so much for your time. that was the alex a of be on the head of the center of the asia pacific studies at the russian academy of science. thank you very much. like i did mentioned to you the engine pm

has had an accident packed today. and before he sat down with platinum of hoops and then equipment before they even visited that cultural support on the real south, some pavilion he did make some stops including meetings, the south asian countries, diaspora community right here in most about 15000 indian national have sets helps home him life. i'm going to talk about the 60000 a tourist who visit annually. and so this meeting took place at the capital's colton hotel. you can see a very, very woman's celebratory welcome from his compact fits up. but you know, she wasn't just talking about friendship, he wasn't just discussing the cultural exchange programs and people to people ties . he also did make a speech in which he outlines really what can be described as a vicious plans for the indian academy to cindy, as most trusted friend, our russian friends call it drews,

back and in hindi. we call him dusty in russia in the winter season, no matter how much the temperature goes down into minus levels. the friendship between india and russia, as always, being in the plus, this relationship is based on mutual trust and respect, or friendship grow stronger and stronger. all the time and for this friendship between india and russia, i especially praise my dear friend, president clinton's leadership. he has worked hard for more than 2 decades to strengthen this partnership. over the past 10 years, i have come to russia 6 times. and in these years, we have met each other 17 times. this meeting is going to increase trust and respect. i think the people of russia, by once again, think my friend, president tutoring for this. now we are also working on the chin. i've let it go, stuck, eastern maritime corridor. those are countries are re discovering each other through the game to vote. a dialogue of civilizations to new consulates will be opened,

didn't cause into catherine bird. and it is very fortunate that after being elected the government for the 3rd time, my 1st conversation with the indian diaspora is happening here in moscow with you was of this government's aim is to make india the 3rd largest economy in the world . in the 3rd term, july joining me now to use charlotte to benson. here's also being beaten down on by this very tough july sun. right outside the very beautiful city. fossils without somewhat diminished has the paid them. so i mean, look, saw that we've been discussing this, like i said, from all different angles while we were talking about the corp loan trade defense, a space new to the thoughts. i think that a big one to we've already been told to, but it will be positive as that have come out of this decades known friendship on partnership. how fruitful, how stable that speed. unfortunately, it's not been received that well in the west. so if you could really just give us

a sense of as an already set, the west is looking at this visit. what's the, what's thinking? well, so scheduling to put a dump in the wall. so ready? a fantastic visit joel huge friendship and strengths between india and russia. but quite frankly, when we talking about how the west music is very tense and it is going to put a bit of a dump in a room. they said not because we getting the suggestion, but the west is increasingly uneasy with the relations between rusher and india, particularly as the strength and let's not forget this meeting between the render moody, the premier of india and black may of preaching the president of russia columns as western nations, nate to members, and meeting over in washington, and they seeing images of the to read is chatting, riding around in goals. cox, how give each of the watching displays of sources and drinking c and

o for nearly discussing subjects, frankly. and honestly, and that is going to really run cool. many of those western lead is a sort of give you a sense of what we've heard from the us. this is from the spec spaces of the state department to says that they all watching this and they have raised the concerns with india is a strategic partner with whom we engage in a full and frank dialogue. and that includes our concerns about the relationship with russia. i will look to promote as part of march to, to see what he talked about. but as i said, we made quite clear directly with india are concerns about their relationship with restaurant. and so we would hope india, any other country when they engage with russia, would make clear that russia should respect the you in charge. the respect you credit sovereignty and territorial integrity will help the u. s. and these allies

advance full time and time again is that india come out and couldn't russia condemn russia over the situation in ukraine. and that is something that can be a has were, seems to do in do, says a believes in peace it, it wants to find a way towards that. but it has refused to cow down to that pressure from the west. the demands to stop trading with russia to russia. and in fact, as a result of that, in recent weeks, we've had the us one thing of which threats against india suggesting that there would be serious consequences is in view. indian companies twined circumvent the sanctions that have been imposed on russia by the western hemisphere of the western world. and in addition to that, we also heard from the us some past due to india, sort of saying that as well. so we knew that that is a real, right. we know that he was already placed sanctions in some, in businesses as

a result of spec twice and continue trading with russia. so this is a real threat that it also comes as the us is trying to get him on board for end because it was the biggest slice a trade with india. and it's to says about the situation in the, in the pacific where it was india just side with the us and of the, a g 7 nations against showing that, if there is a face of that in the near future. so, you know, very tens lines coming out, just also want to bring you something that we heard from loving me. is that lensky, the former president of ukraine, who has gone on at this is on social media to also give his opinions about this visit to the movie to russian cooling it? disappointing. i know also going on to saying it's devastating the belief of the world's largest democracy is hawking. preaching at a time when ukraine is being boomed and he made reference specifically to an incident that happened

a monday or new framework children's hospital was hate and they were apparently some casualties. as a result of that, now the west and ukraine is blamed russia for this. russia's m o. d has been very clear at time and time again. and this reiterate to the following the incident, the russian does not attack civilian infrastructure. it does load attack hospitals . it says that actually what happens is that children's hospital is it resulted by ukrainian m t a croft mississauga and cooling a right. now, when we talked about india's position on ukraine, i know that you just heard a little bit of wanting to run the moody have to say before being present, present. when that was coming past me. that was quite interesting is the movie side. but he and pretend expense for 5 hours on monday evening having sprung open discussions, nothing was off the table and he said that they had to bite you, craig,

he's to said the any more complex is difficult than any person who has, you know, themselves, facing humanities doesn't want to see other people, so i and that false lead with a new service, particularly children of casualties as a result of that. but he said peace is essential until things is essential for that . and dialogue is essential for that load. he said that i was particularly interesting, as he said, the pigeon had been open and free with his opinions. his positions and the 2 are rashed out, some increasingly evolving. interesting ideas, won't they? all, we don't know. we're hoping we might get a sense of that in the coming hours potentially the coming weeks. but he also said the president p team was to miss the present preaching himself, wanted piece a piece on i think what we can get a sense from that is she said that india is willing to cooperate in any way or

shape to bring that piece between russia and ukraine, so possibly we could see the global south of india heading not playing quite a large pause and potential negotiations in the future. but i think it was very important than the render. moody said that these were frank discussions. they were respectful and they've come up he said with these increasingly evolving, interesting ideas assessed you. i'm really looking forward to finding out what fail so i'm on, i'm hoping that you're going to be able to bring me the very latest on the west. sorry. clear that there is some play is outbox and still don't understand that block mentality 0. so meant how does he cliques, it's a single pulse. it's all about co operation and multi polarity now sought at defense, the joining the, the well, uh so this how uh from i was to do just a starting for away from the criminal in case you couldn't tell. it is a rock but there is still so much more.
