new Delhi. External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar met his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi here on Friday and discussed the Russo-Ukraine war. Both the leaders have agreed on diplomacy and dialogue to resolve the crisis. “On Ukraine, we discussed our respective perspectives and perspectives, but agreed that diplomacy and dialogue should be a priority,” Jaishankar told a press conference after the meeting.
Earlier, India had maintained its neutral stand on the Russia-Ukraine situation by staying away from the resolution brought by Russia on the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine in the UN Security Council.
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi is in Delhi for two days. He had reached Delhi on Thursday evening.
It’s been a month since the Russo-Ukraine War began and Russia is trying to capture Ukrainian cities one after the other.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has called for worldwide support against Russia’s invasion of his country, which has completed a month on Thursday. The war began on 24 February.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has been aggressive, has repeatedly called it a “special military operation” launched to “de-Nazify” the Eastern European nation.
Responding to the sanctions, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said, “It is foolish to believe that Western sanctions against Russian businesses can have any effect on the Russian government. These will only strengthen Russian society.”
Meanwhile, US President Joe Biden and European Commission President Usura von der Leyen said in a joint statement: “We stand united in condemning Russia’s aggression against Ukraine. The United States and the European Union have strengthened their sanctions regime.” We continue to raise humanitarian relief to support people within Ukraine.”
Biden also plans to visit Poland’s Rzejo, about 80 km from the Ukrainian border.
