During their first meeting of the year, Modi and Putin reviewed progress in bilateral cooperation across several areas, including political, economic, defence, energy, space, mobility and people-to-people ties.

The two leaders also exchanged views on India-Russia engagement in the multilateral arena, particularly within BRICS under India's 2026 chairship.

They discussed key regional and global issues of mutual interest, including the conflicts in West Asia and the Black Sea region, which have affected maritime trade and the safety and security of Indian seafarers.

Prime Minister Modi reiterated that dialogue and diplomacy were the way forward in resolving conflicts.

The two leaders agreed to remain engaged to further strengthen the Special and Privileged Strategic Partnership between India and Russia, which continues to expand and has demonstrated resilience amid geopolitical uncertainties.
