PM Modi: As he wrote on X (which used to be Twitter), Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that Russian President Vladimir Putin called him to tell him about his recent meeting with former U.S. President Donald Trump in Alaska. Modi said thank you and said the talk was an important way to confirm the “special strategic partnership” between India and Russia.
This diplomatic move shows that Moscow values its relationship with New Delhi, even though global alliances are changing all the time. Putin showed that India is a reliable and important partner by giving Modi an update right after the high-profile meeting.
Summit in Alaska piques interest around the world
The Putin–Trump meeting in Alaska has gotten a lot of attention around the world, but there aren’t many specifics about what will be discussed yet. Reports say that the talks were mostly about issues of international security, trade, regional wars, and the balance of power in general.
Putin’s direct briefing to Modi after the summit shows that India is no longer just a player in the area but a player in shaping global stories as well. It also shows that Russia is still balancing its relationships, with long-term links with India and current engagements with the West.
Is Donald Trump Regretting?
Politicians are talking about this event: Is Donald Trump now regretting the diplomatic decisions he made in the past? During his time in office, Trump’s behaviour toward both Russia and India was hard to predict. At times, he tried to improve ties, but at other times, he used harsh language to make people worried.
Now that Putin is choosing to keep Modi in the loop about a possible U.S.-Russia dialogue, Trump may start to wonder if his past actions made him less powerful in international political talks. Being left out of stories about what happened after the meeting might not be good for Trump, who is trying to get his political career back on track.
India as a Global Balancer: PM Modi Strategic Role
India has always been on the edge of what to do between the U.S. and Russia. It has strong defence ties with Russia while also growing its trade and military ties with the U.S. Russia’s decision to tell India first after its talks with Trump shows that it understands India’s importance as a balance power.
Experts say this isn’t just a polite call, but a strategic message: India’s voice matters in shaping outcomes in the area and around the world. These kinds of actions help New Delhi’s reputation as a neutral but necessary partner in world events.
