India’s External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar is set to arrive in Moscow for a two-day visit as India-Russia relations take centre stage ahead of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s expected visit to India for the BRICS Summit.
During his visit, Jaishankar is expected to co-chair the 27th session of the India-Russia Intergovernmental Commission on Trade, Economic, Scientific, Technological and Cultural Cooperation with Russia’s First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov.
The commission is one of the key mechanisms overseeing economic and broader bilateral cooperation between India and Russia. The two countries also maintain a separate intergovernmental mechanism focused on military and technical cooperation.
Jaishankar’s Moscow visit comes as New Delhi continues to push for greater Russian investment in India and seeks to address the growing imbalance in bilateral trade.
India-Russia trade reportedly crossed $68 billion in 2024-25, while India’s exports to Russia remained significantly lower than its imports. Both countries have set an ambitious target of taking bilateral trade to $100 billion by 2030.
Jaishankar is also expected to meet Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, with discussions likely to include the ongoing West Asia conflict and concerns surrounding energy supplies.
The visit comes at a crucial diplomatic juncture for India, which is preparing for several major international engagements, including the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit in Kyrgyzstan, the United Nations General Assembly in September and the BRICS Summit in New Delhi.
