  • Deeply concerned over escalation of conflict in Ukraine

    Within hours of Russia firing cruise missiles on Monday which hit Ukrainian cities including civilian facilities in Kyiv killing at least 11 people, India said that it is “deeply concerned” at the escalation of the conflict in Ukraine, including targeting of infrastructure and deaths of civilians.


    This is one of the most prompt and sharp statements made by New Delhi, a after Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s had told Russian President Vladimir Putin that “today’s era is not an era of war” on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, last month. India has not yet publicly condemned the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

    In response to questions on escalation of conflict in Ukraine, the Ministry of External Affairs’ official spokesperson, Arindam Bagchi said: “India is deeply concerned at the escalation of the conflict in Ukraine, including targeting of infrastructure and deaths of civilians.”
