Prime Minister Narendra Modi addresses expat Indians at Moscow's Expocentre.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi today addressed around 3,000 members of the Indian community at a high-voltage programme at Moscow's Expocentre. In his address, the Prime Minister talked of India-Russia ties, India's present and the way ahead for both nations.
Here are his top ten quotes:
India-Russia ties are very deep. Political relations, trade relations is one thing. Our ties go beyond that.
"I was told there are more than 150 schools of Indian performing arts and its is the Russians who run them. The way they breathed life in garba, that I feel in next navratas, we can learn from them how to do the garba."
Yes, we also face problems but we are not those who will only cry about the problems. We are finding solutions to the problems we face.
Those who saw India only as a market are now seeing India as a manufacturing hub.
Today all agencies describe India as the fastest growing economy in the world with most promise.
India and Japan have agreed to partner for a bullet train project. Japan has agreed to give loan at very low interest rate.
FDI in India has gone up by 40 per cent in one year. It is not a small thing. Today they are investing because they know this is one place that will give them returns.
Earlier India used to be a spectator. Today whenever the world takes a decision, India has a role to play.
For years India has told the world terrorism is the enemy of humanity... The world has accepted what India has been saying on terrorism: an enemy of humanity that needs to be countered through international cooperation.
Earlier they used to talk about European Union and ASEAN. The day is not far when they start talking about Eurasia. Our friendship with Russia can create prosperity in the entire Eurasian region.
