India is a strategic partner with whom it engages in a full and frank dialogue, the United States said on Monday as Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a bilateral meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to travel to Russia on July 8, diplomatic sources have told NDTV, to hold bilateral talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin under the much-delayed annual summit mechanism.

The first edition of India-Russia '2+2' defence and foreign ministerial dialogue may be held alongside a summit between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Vladimir Putin that is likely to take place on December 6.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi travelled on a shipwith Russian President Vladimir Putin to the Zvezda shipbuilding complex, the first stop in his two-day visit to the Russian Far East region.

India is likely to seal a nearly Rs 40,000 crore deal to procure S-400 Triumf air defence missile systems from Russia before top leaders of the two countries hold an annual summit around October, official sources said.
