Modi will pay an official visit to Russia on July 8-9.
"This will be an official visit. And we hope that the heads of state will be able to communicate in an informal setting as well. And of course, the negotiations will take place both in a narrow format, in the Kremlin, and in an expanded format — with delegations," Peskov told Rossiya 1 reporter Pavel Zarubin.
Moscow expects Modi’s visit, which is important for bilateral relations, to be full-scale in nature, he added.
