Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to travel to Ukraine in the coming weeks, marking his first visit to the country since the start of the war between Ukraine and Russia. This visit comes at a critical juncture as Ukrainian forces make significant advances into Russian territory, surprising many observers.
Modi has been vocal in calling for a ceasefire in Ukraine, although he has refrained from directly condemning Russia's military actions. India, which has abstained from UN resolutions on Ukraine, maintains close ties with Russia, relying heavily on Russian military equipment and increasing purchases of discounted Russian crude oil.
