Kremlin Denies Tensions Between Putin and Modi at Moscow Meeting

MOSCOW – On Wednesday, the Kremlin refuted claims of any disagreement between President Vladimir Putin and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during their recent talks in Moscow. The meeting came a day after a tragic strike on a children’s hospital in Kyiv, Ukraine, which drew an implicit rebuke from Modi. He expressed his deep sorrow over the loss of innocent children’s lives, describing it as “painful and terrifying.”

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov clarified that the decision to cancel a subsequent session of talks between Russian and Indian delegations was solely due to scheduling issues and the fact that the agenda had been fully addressed. “This has absolutely nothing to do with any disagreements or problematic situations,” Peskov assured reporters.
