President Volodymyr Zelenskiy of Ukraine engaged in a conversation with India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday, in the run-up to trilateral talks with Russia and the United States in Abu Dhabi. These discussions are scheduled to commence on Tuesday and Wednesday, at a time when Russia is intensifying its attacks on Ukraine's energy and logistics supplies in anticipation of the winter months.
In a follow-up statement on the social media platform X, Zelenskiy echoed Prime Minister Modi's stance that the time has come to end the war, rather than perpetuating it. He further revealed that India is prepared to mediate in the establishment of grain export corridors in the Black Sea, which have been obstructed by Russian assaults.
While Modi's office did not provide further details, they confirmed that the Prime Minister expressed India's willingness to support "all efforts aimed at the peaceful resolution of the conflict."
