The Russian President emphasised that he remains in regular contact with the leadership of all three nations regarding developments in the conflict. According to Putin, these countries have consistently demonstrated a genuine interest in achieving a peaceful resolution and addressing the issues surrounding the war through diplomatic means.
Putin’s remarks come at a time when international efforts to end the prolonged conflict have intensified. His statement also follows Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent diplomatic engagements with both Russia and Ukraine. During his visit to Moscow earlier this year, Modi held discussions with Putin on a range of bilateral and global issues, including the Ukraine conflict.
Subsequently, during his visit to Ukraine, Prime Minister Modi reiterated India’s long-standing position that dialogue and diplomacy remain the only viable path to ending the war. He emphasised that India has consistently stood on the side of peace and has encouraged both nations to pursue negotiations instead of prolonged military confrontation.
India has maintained a balanced approach throughout the conflict, calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities while supporting efforts aimed at achieving lasting peace. New Delhi has repeatedly stressed the importance of respecting international law, sovereignty and territorial integrity while advocating for dialogue as the best means to resolve disputes.
Putin’s endorsement of India, alongside Brazil and China, highlights the growing recognition of emerging powers in global peace and conflict-resolution efforts.
