‘I felt that you don’t need … ‘: Putin’s remark makes PM Modi burst into laughter – Video | India News

NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi burst into laughter when Russian President Vladimir Putin, on a lighter note, said that their relationship is such that PM Modi may not need any translation to understand his words.
“We have such a relationship that I felt that you do not need any translation,” said Russian President Vladimir Putin at the bilateral meeting with PM Modi.

Russian President Putin welcomed PM Modi with a hug and a handshake. Later, the two leaders held bilateral talks ahead of the Brics summit, which is set to take place on October 23. The Brics members are Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi landed in Russia’s Kazan for the summit on Tuesday.
Speaking on the Russia-Ukraine war, PM Modi said India will fully support the early establishment of peace and stability.
“I have been in constant touch with you on the subject of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. As I have said earlier, we believe that the problems should be resolved in a peaceful manner. We fully support the early establishment of peace and stability. All our efforts give priority to humanity. India is ready to provide all possible cooperation in the times to come,” PM Modi said.
Over the last quarter-century, Brics, an acronym initially coined by a Goldman Sachs economist, has evolved from a grouping of emerging market economies into a potential challenger to the Western-led global order.
The key focus of this Brics summit in Kazan is to explore how Brics can continue to push for a multipolar world order—one that challenges the dominance of the US and the Western-led global financial system.
Brics represents a significant portion of the world’s population and economic output, with its members accounting for nearly 40 per cent of the global population and around 25 per cent of global GDP.
