Govt slams Rahul Gandhi for 'false & misleading' tweet says 'India-Russia summit cancelled due to Covid-19',
Rahul Gandhi Tweeted a news story today regarding India Russia Annual Summit. However later the news was denied by the MEA and termed fake.
One of the alleged fake stories was published by Shekhar Gupta's The Print, which is famous for its Propaganda news.
Rahul Gandhi has Tweeted "Russia is a very important friend of India. Damaging our traditional relationships is short-sighted and dangerous for our future".
India Russia Annual Summit didn't take place in 2020 due to Covid-19 pandemic. This was a mutually agreed decision between the two govts. Any imputation otherwise is false and misleading. Spreading false stories in important relationships is particularly irresponsible: Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson.
Russian Ambassador too slammed the fake news published by The Print
The Print wrote
"For the first time in the last two decades, India and Russia have not held their annual summit. This comes after Moscow expressed severe reservations on New Delhi joining the Indo-Pacific initiative and Quad, thereby tilting more towards the US".
"India and Russia have been holding the annual summit, which is the highest institutionalised dialogue mechanism in the strategic partnership, since 2000 when the ‘Declaration on the India-Russia Strategic Partnership’ was signed between both sides"
