Russia supports India’s permanent seat in UNSC.
On Wednesday, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar met Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. Both had a bilateral meeting.

The External Affairs Minister told the Indian community that what makes the relationship between the two countries special is that after the 1950s, many major changes took place in the world in the last 70-80 years. The Soviet Union became Russia. India also made progress in many fields. India-Russia relations are stable in international politics today.
This is the seventh time this year that the Foreign Ministers of India and Russia have met. Both the leaders had met earlier also at the G20 Summit. The Russian President was then replaced at the conference by Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
Why did Prime Minister Modi himself not visit Russia?
This is the second time that Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not come to the India-Russia Annual Summit. In fact, both countries hold an annual conference every year. Leaders from one nation visit another during this time. India and Russia are the venues of the summit twice.
So far 21 bilateral summits have taken place between Russia and India. Putin made his last visit to India in 2021. Prime Minister Modi did not visit Russia after the start of Ukraine war in 2022. Russian President Putin also did not come to India for the G20 meeting in September.
According to a BBC report, Prime Minister Modi is giving a signal to the West by not visiting Russia, because Jaishankar’s visit shows Russia that Delhi has not abandoned its old strategic ally.
Last year, Bloomberg said in a report that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had canceled the conference to be held in Russia after threats to use nuclear weapons in the Ukraine war.
