Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh will not be meeting his Chinese counterpart Wei Fenghe in Moscow on the sidelines of 75th Victoria Parade, as suggested by some Chinese propaganda websites. Singh is currently on a three-day visit to Moscow to attend the 75th Victory Day Parade. On Tuesday, Rajnath Singh termed his visit to the Russian capital a sign of 'special friendship' between New Delhi and Moscow. Many of them were part of the war efforts to provide assistance to the Soviet Army," Rajnath Singh had said. Meanwhile, the Working Mechanism for Consultation and Coordination on India-China Border Affairs (WMCC) is likely to hold a virtual meet on Wednesday to discuss border tensions between the two countries.
