Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit is important for Ukraine because India can mediate the implementation of certain points of the Peace Formula, including the exchange of prisoners and the return of children forcibly deported to Russia. It is also a "gateway to the Global South" for Ukraine. This was reported by the Center for Countering Disinformation of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, UNN reports.
