Modi's meeting with Putin comes at a critical time for Russia after the G7, led by the United States, met in Italy in June to renew their commitment to Ukraine and fund Kyiv's efforts by using profits from frozen Russian assets.
July 8 (UPI) -- India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi started a two-day Kremlin visit on Monday, marking his first trip to Moscow since Russia began its invasion of Ukraine.
India, which has managed to maintain a neutral stance since the Russian aggression, has purchased discounted oil from the country since the start of the war, which critics have complained has helped the Kremlin to fund its war against Kyiv.
Modi will attend a private dinner led by Russian President Vladimir Putin as cabinet members hold bilateral members.
