Russia’s foreign minister has lauded India for not taking a “one-sided view” as he discussed Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine with his Indian counterpart.

Jaishankar emphasized the importance of a cessation of violence but avoided condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Asked if Indian Prime Minister Narendra could mediate between Moscow and Kyiv, he replied, “I haven't heard about such talk, frankly speaking.” India was Moscow's ally during the Cold War but has since sought to maintain ties with both Russia and Western nations.
He said the U.S. is looking for its friends and allies to speak in unison and loudly against the"unjustified, unprovoked, premeditated Russian aggression.” Jaishankar, who met British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss on Thursday, defended India’s decision and decried"what looks almost like a campaign on this issue.”
