Vladimir Putin G20 Summit : Why Is Vladimir Putin Not Attending G20 Summit In India? : Russian President Vladimir Putin will not attend the G20 summit to be held in India this year. Let us know the 3 big reasons behind this.
The G20 Summit is an important conference held every year. Every year this conference is organized in different countries. Leaders of G20 countries participate in it and discuss globally important issues. India has got the chairmanship and hosting of this year’s G20 summit. Hosted by India, this year’s G20 summit will be held in the capital Delhi on September 9-10. In such a situation, along with the leaders of G20 countries, other important leaders and officials will also participate in this conference. However, Russian President Vladimir Putin will not attend this G20 summit to be held in India. In place of Putin, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov will attend the G20 summit in India.
3 big reasons for Putin not attending the G20 summit in India
Relations between India and Russia have been very good for a long time and have also strengthened with time. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi also has good relations with Russian President Putin. In such a situation, why is Putin not coming to India to attend the G20 summit? Let’s take a look at the 3 big reasons behind this.
1) Limited foreign tours
Ever since the Russia-Ukraine War started, Putin has limited his foreign tours, especially high-level tours. Hosting the G20 summit in India is a big occasion and a big tour as well. For this reason Putin is not coming to India to participate in it.

2) Question on Russia and Ukraine war
Putin does not shy away from talking about the Russia-Ukraine war in front of the Russian media, but he avoids doing so in front of the international media. Also, Putin is not interested in talking about the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine in front of international leaders. During the G20 summit in India, international media will be present on a large scale and many international leaders will also be present. In such a situation, Putin does not want to get involved in any kind of question-and-answer session with international media and leaders on the Russia-Ukraine war.
3) Security reasons
Putin’s security has also increased since the start of the Russia-Ukraine war. Although special care will be taken for the security of all the leaders and officials during the G20 summit in India, yet Putin does not want to risk his security by attending the G20 summit in India.
