Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Ukraine has sparked speculation about India’s role in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. This visit marks the first time an Indian prime minister has visited Ukraine since the country gained independence from the Soviet Union.
Modi’s visit comes on the heels of a trip to Poland, where he held talks with Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk. During his time in Poland, Modi emphasized India’s support for dialogue and diplomacy to restore peace in Ukraine. However, India has notably refrained from explicitly condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and has abstained from UN resolutions criticizing the Kremlin.
The question on everyone’s mind is: what is India’s role in the war between Russia and Ukraine? With Modi’s visit to Ukraine and his recent comments in Poland, it appears that India is advocating for peaceful resolution through dialogue and diplomacy. However, India’s hesitance to condemn Russia’s actions raises questions about where its true allegiance lies in this conflict.
As Modi meets with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the world watches closely to see how India’s position on the war will evolve. Will India continue to walk the delicate tightrope of neutrality, or will it take a more assertive stance in condemning Russia’s aggression? Only time will tell.
