0:39Now PlayingIndian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Kyiv on Friday in an attempt to balance ties with Washington and Moscow, but has ruled out a role mediating an end to Russia’s war in Ukraine, according to people familiar with the matter.
The South Asian nation has, however, agreed to relay messages between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskiy, the people said, asking not to be named as discussions are private. Indian officials have called for dialog and diplomacy to end the war that began with Russia’s Feb. 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
Modi’s visit to Ukraine comes weeks after he visited Russia, a longtime India ally, sparking frustration in Washington. President Joe Biden’s administration has made closer ties with India a cornerstone of its foreign policy. American officials expressed concern about the Russia visit in a series of meetings and phone calls with their Indian counterparts in July, Bloomberg News has reported.
