\u201cHow the elephant and the bear are seeking new paths through the fog of sanctions\u201d is the headline in the tabloid Moskovsky Komsomolets. <\/p>\n

\u201cPolitics, economics, military cooperation \u2013 all this is mixed together like the different smells of the streets of Delhi.\u201d <\/p>\n

Nezavisimaya Gazeta runs with \u201cNew Delhi is feeling around for a balance between Moscow and Washington. <\/p>\n

\u201cVladimir Putin\u2019s two-day visit to India comes at a difficult time in relations between the two countries. India is under big pressure from America to force it to stop buying Russian energy and weapons. Prime Minister Modi is being careful to avoid a break with Russia.\u201d <\/p>\n

In its reporting, the Russian government paper Rossiyskaya Gazeta doesn\u2019t miss an opportunity to take a swipe at the UK. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe whole world understood: India is a great power. It cannot be treated like a British colony.\u201d <\/p>\n

The paper quotes President Putin\u2019s foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov saying that last night\u2019s \u201cinformal dinner\u201d between the leaders of India and Russia \u201cis one of the key points of the visit, because during such confidential face-to-face contacts, the most urgent, most sensitive and most important issues of both bilateral relations and the international situation are discussed. Politics is made at these kind of meetings\u201d. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"How are Russian newspapers reporting Putin’s visit?published at 06:29 GMT 06:29 GMT Steve RosenbergRussia editor \u201cHow the elephant…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":299999,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-299998","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299998","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=299998"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299998\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/299999"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=299998"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=299998"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=299998"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
