India's strategic partnership with Russia is "incomparable in content", said Prime Minister Narendra Modi here Thursday.
Russia has been "a pillar of strength" for India, said Modi after holding the annual summit talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin here.
Modi said that "we have met twice at the opposite ends of the world - at Brazil and Australia".
He recalled that President Putin and then prime minister Atal Bihar Vajpayee launched the annual summit process in 2000.
The prime minister said the two countries have "a strategic partnership that is incomparable in content".
He added that Russia has been "a steadfast supporter" even in difficult moments of history.
