Interestingly, Chinese President Xi Jinping was not among the recipients of the calls.

Russian leader Vladimir Putin has stepped up diplomatic contacts on the eve of the visit of Vladimir Zelensky and a group of European leaders to the White House. He called the presidents of Brazil, India and South Africa.

This move was to demonstrate that Moscow is not in international isolation. This is reported by The Guardian.

Who did Putin call before the leaders' meeting in Washington?"

Putin separately briefed his three partners on the results of recent talks with US President Donald Trump held in Alaska.

Analysts said the move was aimed at giving the impression of active diplomatic support and engaging countries trying to remain neutral in pushing Moscow's demands for an end to the war against Ukraine.

Interestingly, Chinese President Si Jinping was not among the recipients of the calls. Putin probably plans to personally deliver the results of his dialogue with Trump during his visit to China in late August, when the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit will be held.

Brazil, India, China, South Africa and Russia form the backbone of the BRICS bloc, which has become a key economic pillar for Moscow after the West closed its markets to it in response to the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
