The country's National Security Advisor Ajit Doval has met Russian President Putin. Kremlin spokespersons addressed a press conference after the visit. In which they talked about the meeting between PM Modi and Zelensky. They also answered the question whether Zelensky had sent any message to Putin through Ajit Doval.
Russian President Vladimir Putin meets leaders of other countries apart from his counterparts. But when India's National Security Advisor Ajit Doval arrived to meet him on Thursday, he was given a warm welcome. NSA Doval met the Russian President at the Palace of St. Petersburg and briefed him on PM Modi's recent visit to Ukraine.
The NSA's meeting with the Russian President came nearly three weeks after PM Modi's visit to Ukraine. Before going to Ukraine, PM Modi visited Russia in early July. Where he met Putin.
What did Ajit Doval say after meeting PM Modi?
I wanted to show you about his meeting with President Zelensky. Doval further said that I will meet you personally and tell you about the meeting between the two leaders. The conversation took place in a very close manner where only the two leaders were present. Zelensky was also with him. And I was with PM Modi. So I am a witness to the conversation that took place there.
Putin's reaction after meeting Ajit Doval
I remember what Russian President Putin said after the meeting with India's National Security Advisor Ajit Doval. I said in my first meeting that apart from PM Modi's visit to Russia being successful, the work on the decision we took is going on at a good pace. We are happy that our special strategic partnership is getting stronger and stronger.
