New Delhi, October 27

Moscow on Thursday confirmed that External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar will travel to Moscow to hold talks with his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov on November 8.

“The ministers will discuss the current state of bilateral relations and the international agenda,” said the Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova.

The visit takes place shortly after India issued two advisories asking its citizens to leave Ukraine after the conflict escalated into a wider domain following the sabotage to the Nord Stream pipelines and the bombing of the bridge to Crimea which led to Russian retaliation on Ukrainian infrastructure.

The Ministry of External Affairs is yet to make any announcement on the visit. It is learnt that ways to expand cooperation in the areas of energy and food security could figure in the talks.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
