  • The article says Narendra Modi used a meeting that began with a hug to press Vladimir Putin over the continuing war in Ukraine.
  • It frames the conflict as contrary to India’s interests and says Modi may have leverage through oil policy.
  • India’s foreign minister is heading to Ukraine, according to the description.

It began with a hug. Then Narendra Modi pressed Vladimir Putin where it hurts.

The war in Ukraine continues, and the conflict runs against India’s interests, the analysis says. Modi’s strongest card now may be a move against the oil pipeline, while India’s foreign minister is on the way to Ukraine.

The piece presents the encounter as more than a display of warmth between the two leaders. Behind the embrace, it sees an Indian effort to push Putin away from a war that has become increasingly difficult for New Delhi to accept.
