PM Modi's initial bilateral trip of the year: The significance of Russia for India


Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Russia on both Monday (July 8) and Tuesday to meet with President Vladimir Putin. This will be the first time the two leaders have seen each other since Modi took office, with their last meeting occurring before Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, which led to extensive Western sanctions. Modi's previous visit to Russia was for the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok in September 2019, and Putin's last trip to India was for the annual bilateral summit in December 2021.

Emphasizing a Focus. By selecting Russia as the destination for his inaugural bilateral visit upon taking office, Modi has deviated from the customary practice of new Indian Prime Ministers opting to visit a nearby country upon assuming office, a practice he adhered to in both June 2014 (Bhutan) and June 2019 (Maldives and Sri Lanka). His recent visit to Italy was for a summit of G7 leaders, marking his first visit to Italy since becoming Prime Minister.

Putin threatens that if Ukraine's long-

Putin  threatens  that  if  Ukraine's  long-range  missile  limits  are  eased,  Russia  will  be  "at  war"  with  NATO. Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, has issued a warning, stating that Moscow will interpret NATO's approval of Ukraine's use of longer-range missiles to attack within his nation as the bloc's direct involvement in the conflict. Putin's remarks coincide with the notion that, more than two years after Russia's invasion, the US and Western officials are more amenable to the prospect of removing limitations on Ukraine's use of US-supplied long-range weaponry, something Kyiv has vocally advocated for. Putin said to reporters on Thursday that "this will indicate that NATO countries—the United States and European countries—are at war with Russia." If this is the case, we will respond appropriately to the threats posed to us, keeping in mind the shift in the conflict's fundamental nature. U...

Telegram - CEO's arrest.

  Telegram will now provide law authorities with some bad actor info following the CEO's arrest. Telegram, a messaging app, has made some additional safety and user privacy concessions following the arrest of CEO and founder Pavel Durov in France last month. French prosecutors detained and questioned Durov over alleged illegal behaviour on the platform, including trafficking and gang activity, as well as the company's purported refusal to turn over investigation-related data. Later, after the investigation was completed, he was freed from police custody with a $5.56 million bail. The probe spurred discussion about online criminal conduct and free speech, but the authorities' worries were not entirely unexpected. Thanks in significant part to encryption technology and assurances of user privacy, the app has gathered over 950 million users over the years. After being apprehended, Telegram declared that Durov had "nothing to conceal" and found it "ridiculous...
