President Putin wished “all the best” to his “dear friend” Prime Minister Modi as the two leaders held talks on the sidelines of the annual SCO Summit.

Putin said the relations between Russia and India continue to develop very rapidly and have the nature of a strategic privileged partnership, asserting that the two countries are actively engaging on international platforms.
