Kyiv • UNN
Indian Prime Minister Modi called on Putin to end Russia's war against Ukraine, saying that "war does not solve problems" and offered India's help to achieve peace.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a meeting in Moscow with Russian President Vladimir Putin said that continuing Russia's war against Ukraine "will not solve the problems" and confirmed that his country is ready to help achieve peace. This was reported by the Italian edition of ANSA and the French TV-5 monde.

War is not a solution. It requires dialog
Modi added that his country is ready to provide "any assistance" to bring peace closer.
War is not a solution. Bombs, missiles, and weapons cannot guarantee peace, so we emphasize dialogue
According to the 73-year-old Indian prime minister, he felt optimistic during his conversation with Putin on July 8. Modi also noted that he was "positive" about the prospects for a settlement.
At this point, there is no certainty that the Indian prime minister's call will move the case forward, given that Vladimir Putin, who told Modi he was "grateful for the attention," has repeatedly said he wants Ukraine to surrender.
