“…India, more than 1.5 billion of population, more than 7 per cent of economic growth…that’s a powerful country, mighty country. And it’s growing stronger and stronger under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi…” – Vladimir Putin, Source: Reuters news

India’s Stance Against Western Influence 

Putin also noted the nation’s resilience against Western influence – a testament to India’s assertive leadership. The West often portrays those who resist their influence as adversaries, and they’ve tried the same approach with India. Nevertheless, India remains unafraid, maintaining its self-determined path, evident in its growing resilience and strength. 

Advocacy for Bryics Countries in the UN Security Council 

The Russian President highlighted the need for more representation of BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) in the United Nations Security Council. This, he said, is part of his push for progressive reform within the United Nations, which he believes should be conducted gradually. 

Indeed, it appears India’s rising tide under PM Modi’s leadership has not gone unnoticed by global leaders, especially Putin who has praised Modi for the ‘Make in India‘ programme. This seems to point to the bright future that India has under PM Modi.
