The external affairs minister’s agenda in Moscow if given so is going to be a historical occasion for a historical result.

Considering this that S Jaishankar is to make attempt towards brokering peace between Russia-Ukraine, this is going to be a grand Indian diplomatic victory on the global dais.

This is the first visit of External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar’s to Russia in 2022. The Putin-led country is going to welcome the visiting Indian leader after the Russian leader waged war against Ukraine this year. It was July 2021 when Jaishankar last visited Russia.

The 258 days of war with deaths and destruction, Russia has come up as another adamant country after China which may be despite by the world fraternity. But if the things go right after the Musk proposal of peace, External Affairs Minister of India may bring some good news for world.

After Sergey Lavrov, S Jaishankar in Moscow is also to meet Russian Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov, the Russian trade minister.

Significantly, Jaishankar’s visit has come days before the Bali G-20 summit, scheduled on the 15th and 16th of November. In the Bali Summit, for the first time Putin and the western leaders with US President Joe Biden are meeting sitting in the same room.

Moreover, the external affairs minister’s visit comes after Vladimir Putin praised India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi twice in the past few weeks — for India’s “talented” population, and the “independent foreign policy” it has chosen. There are speculations that Jaishankar’s visit is an attempt to mediate between Russia and Ukraine.
