Russia-Ukraine Conflict: PM Modi to speak to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy today

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will speak to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday, news agency PTI quoted government sources as saying. It comes amid India’s ongoing efforts to evacuate its nationals, mostly students, from the conflict-ridden country. This is the second time PM Modi will speak to Zelenskyy since the invasion began. Last month, both leaders had spoken to each other after India abstained during a vote on a US-sponsored UN Security Council resolution that deplored “in the strongest terms” Russia’s “aggression” against Ukraine.
