The conflict in Ukraine is a major concern for the entire world. It has had a wide range of effects on the planet. When our children came home last year, they conveyed the situation in Ukraine in a way that helped me appreciate your suffering and that of the Ukrainian people.
Zelenskyy thanked Modi for supporting “our country’s territorial integrity and sovereignty, in particular, at the platforms of international organizations, and for providing humanitarian aid to Ukraine’’.
According to Kwatra, while expressing concerns about the war, Modi spoke about the wider impact of the conflict on the developing world including economic insecurities in the form of food, fuel and fertilizer shortages.
“Prime Minister appreciated Ukraine’s cooperation in the safe evacuation of Indian students and welcomed the decision by Ukrainian institutions to hold examinations in India for the students.
Prime Minister conveyed India’s clear support for dialogue and diplomacy to find a way forward. He said that for a resolution of the situation, India and Prime Minister personally would do everything within our means,’’ said the Indian government in its readout of the meeting. Modi had in the past too told Zelenskyy that India remained ready to support any peace initiative.
While the 2 leaders had spoken on several occasions on the phone in the past 15 months, this was their first in-person meeting since they last met on the sidelines of the Glasgow climate conference in 2021.
