  • Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged Russian President Vladimir Putin to take steps to end the war in Ukraine.
  • Modi said India supports all peace efforts and repeated his call to move from “endless war” toward an end to the conflict.
  • Putin said Russia had already begun that process, while maintaining that Moscow seeks to achieve the stated aims of its military operation, including control of the Donbas.

Narendra Modi urged Vladimir Putin to help end the war in Ukraine during a meeting on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.

The Indian prime minister said India supports all efforts to achieve peace and repeated an appeal he has made before: “We must choose the path from endless war to an end to war.”

We must choose the path from endless war to an end to war.

— Narendra ModiThe Indian prime minister repeated his call for steps toward ending the war in Ukraine.

Putin responded that Russia had already started along that path. At the same time, he said Moscow remained focused on achieving the aims of what the Kremlin calls its “special military operation,” including securing control over the entire Donbas.

The exchange placed Modi’s call for an end to the fighting alongside Putin’s stated military objectives. The meeting took place during the SCO summit in the Kyrgyz capital.
