From DW News.

India’s national security advisor Ajit Doval has visited Moscow and held talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Russia’s state-run news media reported that Putin and Doval stressed their commitment to a ‘strategic partnership’. Russia is one of India’s top arms suppliers and the ties between the two countries date back to the Soviet era. India is also a major buyer of Russian oil, which is a key source of revenue for Moscow’s military offensive in Ukraine.

The talks between Putin and Doval came after U.S. President Donald Trump imposed an additional 25% tariff on Indian goods — part of a broader push to pressure Russia to stop its war in Ukraine by targeting its trade partners.
