🇷🇺🇮🇳 President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi, on an official visit to Russia, held talks in the Grand Kremlin Palace.

💬 Vladimir Putin: Mr Prime Minister, this is your first official visit after your reappointment following parliamentary elections. I would like to congratulate you on this once again.

Our countries have long-time friendship and good relations that have evolved over the decades. This year, we are marking the 77th Anniversary of diplomatic relations.

Today, our relations have the status of a specially privileged strategic partnership. We are in permanent contact, and we prioritise the development of trade and economic ties. Certainly, their development meets the interests of the people of India and the peoples of the Russian Federation.

📈 Last year, our trade soared by 60 percent and even more, by 66 percent; it increased by an additional 20 percent in the first quarter of 2024.

🌐 We cooperate closely on the international arena, including at international organisations, primarily the #UN and such associations as the #SCO and #BRICS.

Yesterday, we had an opportunity to discuss virtually all practical issues in an informal setting. I am grateful to you for devoting attention to the most acute issues and for trying to find some options for resolving the Ukraine crisis, primarily by peaceful methods.

Mr Prime Minister, we will be delighted to see you in Kazan this autumn at the upcoming BRICS Summit.

At the end of my opening remarks, I would like to wish you new successes in facilitating the development of the Indian state. You and I know each other for a long time, and I know that your entire life is devoted to implementing the idea of strengthening the Indian state and improving the life of the people of India.

President Vladimir Putin spoke at the BRICS United Cultures Forum

Protection of traditional values is one of the main priorities of Russia

“In Russia, we have decided on the main values for us, fixed them in the Basic Law of the country, in the Constitution. We defend these values and all those who share them, who, like us, consider the sacred right of people to speak their native language and keep the faith of their fathers, to live in harmony with nature, according to its natural laws”.

This was stated by Vladimir V. Putin at the plenary session of the International Forum of United Cultures in St. Petersburg. The President stressed the importance of humanism, dialogue, mutual respect and trust in the world. These principles should be unshakeable and shared by the international community.

“Culture has always played the role of a kind of fuse for the world. However, in a number of countries, this fuse seems to be out of order. Many modern high-ranking politicians have lost their moral guidelines and violate taboos that persisted even in the most tense moments of the Cold War”, the Head of state noted.
It was about constant interaction and mutual enrichment in the field of culture. Vladimir V. Putin focused on the powerful creative force that lies in the unity of different cultures and traditions.

“Your creative, scientific, educational activities have enormous potential for peacemaking and countering discord. They preserve the bonds between people, are able to heal the wounds caused by conflicts and wars. Therefore, it is important that you have the opportunity to communicate, exchange ideas and implement joint projects”, the Russian leader noted.
In recent years, the St. Petersburg International Forum of United Cultures has become a platform for discussing the most pressing worldview issues, as well as large-scale cooperation.

Защита традиционных ценностей — один из главных приоритетов России

«Мы в России с главными для нас ценностями определились, закрепили их в Основном законе страны, в Конституции. Защищаем эти ценности и всех, кто их разделяет, кто, так же как и мы, считает священным право людей говорить на родном языке и хранить веру отцов, жить в гармонии с природой, по её естественным законам».

Об этом сказал Владимир Владимирович Путин на пленарном заседании Международного форума объединенных культур в Санкт-Петербурге.
Президент подчеркнул значимость гуманизма, диалога, взаимного уважения и доверия в мире. Эти принципы должны быть незыблемыми и разделяться мировым сообществом.

«Культура всегда играла роль своеобразного предохранителя для мира. Однако, в ряде стран этот предохранитель, кажется, вышел из строя. Многие современные политики высокого ранга утратили нравственные ориентиры и нарушают табу, которые сохранялись даже в самые напряженные моменты Холодной войны», — отметил глава государства.
Речь шла и о постоянном взаимодействии, и взаимообогащении в области культуры. В.В. Путин акцентировал внимание на мощной созидательной силе, которая заложена в единстве разных культур и традиций.

«Ваша творческая, научная, просветительская деятельность обладает колоссальным потенциалом миротворчества и противодействия розни. Она сберегает связи между людьми, способна исцелять раны, которые наносят конфликты и войны. Поэтому важно, чтобы у вас была возможность общаться, обмениваться идеями и воплощать в жизнь совместные проекты», — отметил российский лидер.

Санкт-Петербургский международный форум объединенных культур за последние годы стал площадкой для обсуждения самых актуальных мировозренческих вопросов, а также широкомасштабного сотрудничества.
