Munich Security Conference CEO Benedikt Franke has praised India's change in stance towards the Russia-Ukraine conflict, stating that India has moved from merely advocating for dialogue to actively proposing a resolution to the war. Franke, who is in Delhi for a meeting of the MSC, expressed hope that other countries would follow India's lead in using their diplomatic influence to bring an end to the conflict.

The conversation also touched on India's continued dependence on Russian energy, US-Iran tensions, and the rise of the far-right AfD party in Germany.
