GOA (India) (Sputnik) — Russian President Vladimir Putin and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in a joint statement on Saturday that they stress the necessity to strengthen truce in Syria, deliver humanitarian aid to those in need and continue intra-Syria dialogue.

"Both sides underlined the necessity of strengthening the cessation of hostilities, delivery of humanitarian aid to beseiged areas, and the continuation of intra-Syrian dialogue under UN supervision," Putin and Modi said in a joint statement.

The leaders added that the conflict should be resolved and struggle against terrorism should continue without double standards.

"The Leaders believe… that the full implementation of the relevant UNSC resolutions, including the UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy without application of any double standards or selectivity will be instrumental in countering this challenge… The two sides are convinced that the conflict in Syria should be peacefully resolved through comprehensive and inclusive intra-Syrian dialogue," the statement said.
