Kyiv message: Supporting Ukraine right choice for true Vishwaguru

Dzhaparova will is also scheduled to call on Minister of State for External Affairs and Culture Meenakshi Lekhi and meet Deputy National Security Adviser Vikram Misri.

During her meeting with Verma, both sides discussed bilateral relations and exchanged views on the current situation in Ukraine apart from global issues of mutual interest.

Since the conflict began in February last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin as well as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy several times.

In a phone conversation with Zelenskyy on October 4 last year, Modi said there can be “no military solution” and that India is ready to contribute to any peace effort. India has not yet explicitly condemned the Russian invasion of Ukraine and it has been maintaining that the crisis must be resolved through diplomacy and dialogue.

The MEA said India shares warm and friendly relations and multifaceted cooperation with Ukraine. “Over the last 30 years of establishing diplomatic ties, bilateral cooperation between the two countries has made significant progress in the areas of trade, education, culture and defence,” it said.
