PM Narendra Modi and Russian President Vladimir Putin, in their annual summit, also vowed to take the close ties to a "new level." Calling Russia a "pillar of strength" for India, Modi, in a joint media interaction with Putin, said the strategic partner will remain New Delhi's "most important defence partner" though options have increased.
"Both Sides will strive to complete the construction and commissioning of not less than 12 nuclear units in the next two decades, in accordance with the Agreement of 2008," said the joint vision document. Terming the talks as "substantive", Putin said Russia will support "joint high technology" projects and will facilitate the establishment of an Indian operator of mobile communications besides offering India its civil aviation aircraft.
