India-Russia Annual Summit could not take place due to the COVID-19 pandemic

 New Delhi, Dec 23 :The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on Wednesday said the India-Russia Annual Summit could not take place due to the COVID-19 pandemic and any imputation otherwise was false and misleading.


In response to a media report regarding the India-Russia Annual Summit, MEA spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said, 'The India-Russia Annual Summit did not take place in 2020 because of the COVID pandemic. This was a mutually agreed decision between the two governments. Any imputation otherwise is false and misleading.'

Spreading false stories in important relationships is particularly irresponsible, he added.

For the first time in the last two decades, the two counties have not held their annual summit.
