During his visit to India, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed his excitement about the opportunity to strengthen diplomatic relations between their two nations. He believes that India has the potential to play a significant role in bringing an end to the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia.
The invitation for Zelenskyy to visit India came from Prime Minister Narendra Modi during their meeting in Ukraine. After their bilateral talks, Zelenskyy spoke to the Indian media and praised Modi's visit as a historic event. He also emphasized the importance of having India on their side, rather than trying to maintain a balance between the US and Russia.
Modi's visit to Ukraine was the first by an Indian prime minister since the country gained independence in 1991. This meeting follows his summit talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in July, where he also stressed the need for India to play a role in promoting peace between Ukraine and Russia.
Zelenskyy believes that in order to truly understand a country, one must also understand its people. He expressed his desire to visit India in order to gain a deeper understanding of its people and find a way to strengthen their partnership. He believes that India has the potential to be a key player in diplomatic efforts to bring peace to their region.
During the bilateral talks, Modi and Zelenskyy discussed the urgent need for Ukraine and Russia to come together and find a solution to the ongoing conflict. Zelenskyy was appreciative of Modi's proactive approach and expressed his willingness to meet again, preferably in India, to continue the dialogue.
When asked about the possibility of a peace summit, Zelenskyy stated that they are eager to work towards it and are open to discussing any ideas that Modi may have. However, he made it clear that they will not compromise their territory, people, values, or freedom for the sake of peace.
Zelenskyy also mentioned that he believes Modi is more interested in promoting peace than Putin, but the problem lies in Putin's unwillingness to cooperate. He expressed his frustration and confusion about their meeting and shrugged with a look of exasperation.
