Modi reached Ukraine on 22 August. Here he met President Zelensky. PM Modi became the first Indian Prime Minister to visit Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Prime Minister Modi can have a big impact in ending the Russia-Ukraine war. In an interview to The Times of India, the Ukrainian President said that he wants the second Ukraine Peace Summit to be held in New Delhi. If Modi wants, he can do this.
Zelensky said that Modi is the Prime Minister of a very big country in terms of population and economy. India and Modi can have a big impact in preventing any conflict. On the possibility of PM Modi holding talks between Ukraine and Russia, he said that of course, he can do so.
Zelensky said that Russia has kidnapped thousands of Ukrainian children. We want Modi to help bring back our children. He can ask Putin to just give me 1,000 Ukrainian children, which we will return to Ukraine. If Modi does this then we can be successful in bringing back most of our children.
Zelensky said – BRICS summit failed Zelensky said that leaders of many countries were present at the BRICS summit in Russia, but most of them were those whom Putin does not trust. Saudi Arabia was invited to join the organization but did not join. Putin wanted to bring a large part of the world on his side through this summit but he could not do so.
While attending the BRICS summit of the UN Secretary General, Zelensky said that if someone says that he is neutral in the Ukraine-Russia war, it means that he is with Russia. Zelensky said neutrality only helps Russia. There can be no neutrality between the attacker and the victim.
Last week, Prime Minister Modi participated in the 16th BRICS conference in Kazan city of Russia. During this, Modi had mentioned the Russia-Ukraine war in bilateral talks with Russian President Putin. He had said that problems should be solved only in a peaceful manner. Modi said that India is ready to provide all possible support in the coming times also.
Sanctions had an impact on Russia, if India and China wish, the war will stop. Zelensky said that war can be stopped by weakening Russia's economy. Many people argue that the sanctions have had no impact on Russia, but the reality is that it has had little impact on Russia. If India, China, Türkiye and other big countries impose sanctions on Russia, Putin will be forced to stop the war.
Regarding the US presidential election results, Zelensky said, “American policies do not change by changing leaders. Whoever becomes President of the United States will continue to support Ukraine. If America's policy changes, it will be difficult for us.”
Zelensky said that Europe alone is capable of taking on Russia. It is a powerful continent. It is 5 times larger than Russia in terms of population. Economically it is dozens of times bigger. If Europe remains united then it is very powerful. It is important for us to maintain the unity of Europe.
Zelensky said this is the third harsh winter for Ukraine and the Ukrainian people. We are trying to keep people safe. Russia attacked our power stations so that our people could not bear the winter. We are busy improving our energy system.
