Vladimir Putin India visit 2025 schedule: Putin is coming to his friend regardless of America: Landing in Delhi this evening, discussion will be held with Modi over special dinner

Vladimir Putin India visit 2025 schedule: The eyes of the whole world will be on Delhi airport and Prime Minister’s residence today. Russian President Vladimir Putin is reaching India today (Thursday) at around 6:30 pm. This visit is not ordinary, but diplomatically it has a very deep meaning. This visit of Putin is taking place at a time when America is continuously putting pressure on India to stop buying oil from Russia. America has also expressed its displeasure by imposing additional tariffs, but the friendship between India and Russia seems to be indifferent to all this. This is Putin’s first visit to India after four years and the beginning of the Ukraine war. Russia has made it clear that it stands “shoulder to shoulder” with India. Just 27 hours and back-to-back meetings. Putin’s visit is short but very important. He will spend a total of about 27 hours in India and will not waste even a single minute. Thursday evening schedule: Friendship and dinner. As soon as Putin lands in Delhi at 6:30 pm today, as per protocol, his motorcade will proceed directly towards the Prime Minister’s residence (7, Lok Kalyan Marg). There will be a ‘one-to-one’ dinner meeting between PM Modi and Putin. The world knows that the chemistry between Modi and Putin is amazing, so everyone’s eyes will be on this dinner. The meeting is expected to last till 8:30 pm, after which Putin will go to his hotel for rest. Friday: The real work day. Friday is going to be a very busy day for Putin: 11 am: He will go to Rashtrapati Bhavan and formally meet the President of India. Tribute: After this he will go to Rajghat and stay for about 30 minutes to pay tribute to Mahatma Gandhi. Afternoon strategy: Putin will then reach Hyderabad House. Bilateral talks will take place between the two countries here. Agreements can be signed on important issues like defense deals, crude oil, and fertilizers. Press Statement: Lunch has been scheduled for 2 pm by PM Modi, but just before that, Putin and Modi can issue a joint press statement. In the evening, Putin will stay for an hour in ‘Bharat Mandapam’ and will participate in the launch event of a TV channel (RT TV). After another dinner at Rashtrapati Bhavan at 7:30 pm, he will fly back to Moscow. India and Russia need each other. For New Delhi, this tour is about achieving its freedom and need. We need weapons for our army and cheap oil and fertilizer for our people, which Russia provides. At the same time, India is a reliable and old partner for Russia. The Kremlin (Russian government) spokesperson has rightly said that his country has stood by India at every turn in its construction. Overall, the next 24-27 hours will be a litmus test for India’s foreign policy on how we welcome a friend (Russia) on one hand and balance the West (America) on the other.
