"Our meeting takes place on the eve of the SCO summit - an organization that works towards deepening the situation and contacts between the countries of the Global South and the East, contributes to the socio-economic development and cultural development of the region, and to the formation of a fair and multipolar world," Putin said.
The Russian leader added that Russian-Indian relations continue to strengthen on the principles of a specially privileged strategic partnership.
