PM Modi Ukraine Visit: Indian PM To Land In Ukraine After 30 Long Years Amid Russia Ukraine War
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is making a one-day visit to Ukraine and is expected to arrive in a few hours. As part of the second phase of his Europe tour, Modi is heading to Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, where he will meet President Volodymyr Zelensky. Modi has traveled by train from Poland to Kyiv due to the closure of Ukrainian airspace. The visit comes just six weeks after Modi’s trip to Russia, with which Kyiv has been at war for the past two and a half years. Modi's visit is not for a specific event but is a result of an invitation from President Zelensky. There are questions about the significance and purpose of this brief seven-hour visit. Critics have noted that Modi's earlier visit to Russia was controversial, especially given the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict. Western nations, including Ukraine, had criticized the visit, arguing it was inappropriate for the leader of the world’s largest democracy to visit Russia. India has traditionally maintained strong ties with Russia and has not condemned Russia’s actions in Ukraine. Modi's visit to Ukraine aims to balance relations with both Kyiv and Western nations while advocating for peace. Modi has emphasized India’s commitment to supporting peace and stability in the region, and he plans to discuss a peaceful resolution to the Ukraine conflict with Zelensky.
