Vladimir Yakunin, president of Russian Railways, said they were keen to tie up with Indian Railways for the planned high-speed rail links, as the country has expertise in this area.
Yakunin, who was talking to journalists on the sidelines of the St Petersburg International Economic Forum, said that Russia and India had a relationship in technological matters, both defence and civilian, and this is likely to continue in the future.
