Russian President Vladimir Putin will visit India in December amid rising U.S. pressure. As Trump doubles tariffs on Indian goods over Russian oil imports, New Delhi has defended its energy security, strengthening ties with Moscow despite Western criticism and sanctions threats.
Putin offered to freeze fighting in southern regions if Ukraine ceded Donetsk. Zelensky refused while Trump pushed for a peace agreement, leaving European capitals anxious over Moscow’s growing leverage in the war’s next phase.
Interestingly, while the Russia-US summit was supposed to yield a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine, the latter was not included in the meeting despite being a direct party to the conflict.
While speaking at the programme "Year in Review with Vladimir Putin," he said that Russia is fourth largest economy globally, following China, the United States, and India.
"We have found Alexey," Navalny's spokesperson, Kira Yarmysh, said in a statement on X. "He is now in IK-3 in the settlement of Kharp in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District."
“Our friends in India and our big friend, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, launched the ‘Make in India’ initiative several years ago. It has had a truly impressive effect on the Indian economy. It would do no harm to emulate what is working well, even if it was not us but our friends who created it,” the Russian president asserted.
