Peskov says Putin and Modi should meet as often as possible

Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said cooperation between Russia and India covers a broad range of issues and that Russian President Vladimir Putin and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi should meet frequently whenever possible.

Peskov said the two countries’ cooperation agenda could not be addressed in a single meeting lasting one or two hours. He therefore said it was necessary for the leaders to meet as often as possible.
