PM Modi can’t be intimidated or forced to take actions … : Putin

The Russian President spoke favourably of PM Modi’s tough stance when it comes to defending India’s national interests. “I just look at what is happening from the outside, and sometimes, to be honest, I’m even surprised at his tough position on defending the national interests of India,” Putin said. “I cannot imagine that Modi could be intimidated or forced to take any actions, steps and decisions that are contrary to the national interests of India and Indians,” Putin was quoted as saying at the 14th VTB Investment Forum ‘Russia Calling’.
