Russia, India and China are aware of their common interests in several sectors and there is an overt trend to develop mutual partnership, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Sunday. Lavrov was referring to the recent bonhomie displayed by the leaders of the three countries at the SCO summit in Tianjin last week.
Triple handshake and huddle of PM Narendra Modi, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping at the SCO summit hogged global headlines. It even prompted US President Donald Trump, in a social media post, to lament the loss of India and Russia to “deepest and darkest” China.
“It is a demonstration that three great powers, representing three great civilisations, are aware of their common interests in a number of areas,” Lavrov said.
