what did modi and putin discuss in delhi?

They met in New Delhi on the sidelines of the BRICS summit and discussed a range of issues — trade, energy (including expanding oil imports), defence and nuclear cooperation, and broader goals to boost bilateral commerce (with a reported aim toward raising trade to about $100 billion by 2030). The meetings were framed within wider BRICS talks on trade, currency and confidence‑building on border issues, and the leaders were also pictured together with Xi Jinping during the summit (photo shared by Modi).
