Kyiv: August 23, 2024 Prime Minister Narendra Modi reiterated India’s stand of “dialogue and diplomacy” to resolve the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Union External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said today. The Prime Minister, Mr Jaishankar said, stressed “India’s willingness to contribute in all ways possible”. The two leaders also discussed PM Modi’s conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin during a meeting in Moscow in July, he added. “It is India’s view that the two sides need to engage with each other to find a solution,” said the Union Minister. PM Modi is on a historic visit to Ukraine – which is under the shadow of a long-drawn war with Russia – to hold talks with President Volodymyr Zelensky. It’s the first-ever visit by an Indian prime minister after Ukraine became independent in 1991.
