Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Russian President Vladimir Putin had a telephonic conversation on Friday. During this, the Prime Minister again called for dialogue and diplomacy on the ongoing war with Ukraine. During the talks, President Putin briefed Modi about the recent developments in Russia.
Putin has full faith in PM Modi
There is a big reason behind Putin informing Prime Minister Modi about each and every development of Russia. It needs to be understood. Russia’s war with Ukraine is stretching longer than expected. Now Putin is also facing internal opposition. The rebellion of Russia’s private army Wagner is not hidden. Putin has immense faith in India. The Russian President knows that if anyone can play a major role in stopping further war, it is India.
PM Modi can play a big role in stopping the war
India’s closeness has increased with America and European countries. Prime Minister Modi has also visited America recently. The world has seen the kind of hospitality extended to him. India is currently the link that is in equal dialogue with both the camps involved in the war. This thing is increasing his stature in the world. China or any other country is not seen in this role today. Putin wants to keep his true friend in equal confidence. He doesn’t want to see his very trusted friend cross over to someone else’s side.
