The world must unite to fight terrorism without distinguishing between terror groups, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday after India and Russia signed 16 agreements spanning across various sectors.

"The world must unite and combat terror without distinguishing between terror groups and target countries," Modi said at a joint press conference here with Russian President Vladimir Putin following the annual summit-level meeting between India and Russia.

He also said that "we are one in our belief that world must unite against terrorism".

The prime minister stressed on the necessity for a dialogue for an early political settlement in West Asia.
