Ahead of Russian President Vladimir Putin's India visit, the US has said it would not impact President Barack Obama's trip to the country in January but warned now was not the right time to do business with Russia.

"It is possible to have good relationships with multiple countries even when we disagree on things," State Department deputy press secretary Marie Harf told reporters.

"But again, it is not, to my knowledge, impacting any visits one way or the other," said Harf when asked about Putin's visit to India next week.

The visit, expected to focus two-way trade which currently stands at $10 billion, will be Putin's first since Prime Minister Narendra Modi took over in May.
