JAKARTA - Russian President Vladimir Putin received a visit from Indonesian President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) at the Kremlin, Moscow on Thursday, with a number of agenda items to be discussed by the two leaders.

"Vladimir Putin held talks with Indonesian President Joko Widodo," the Kremlin wrote on its Telegram channel, as quoted on Thursday 30 June.

"The agenda includes bilateral cooperation in various fields, global economic developments, including in the context of G20 activities, global food security issues, and the progress of special military operations in Ukraine," the Kremlin continued.

President Putin is known to refer to his military deployment to Ukraine as a special military operation, to carry out demilitarization and denazification, including protecting native Russian speakers.

Previously reported, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Russia was ready to export 50 million tons of wheat this year, when he received President Jokowi's visit to the Kremlin.

"Last year Russia supplied more than 40 million tons of unhulled rice to the international market, and this year we will be ready to supply around 50 million tons," President Putin said when he met President Jokowi, launching Interfak.

One of President Jokowi's concerns in his series of visits to Ukraine and Russia is to ease conflicts and restore food supply chains that were disrupted by the war.

"The war must stop and those related to the food supply chain must be reactivated," said President Jokowi before leaving the country last Sunday.

It is known that President Jokowi arrived in Russia, Thursday, June 30, 2022, aboard the Garuda Indonesia GIA-1 aircraft which landed at Vnukovo II Airport at around 11.00 local time. The day before, Jokowi had just met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the Maryinsky Palace, Kyiv.
