Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday emphasized India's commitment to peace as he prepared to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin at New Delhi's Hyderabad House. Referring to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, Modi stated that India is 'on the side of peace' and supports a peaceful resolution to the crisis. This stance was welcomed by Putin, who expressed gratitude for India's efforts in promoting peace efforts on Ukraine. The two leaders will discuss strengthening bilateral ties in areas such as military cooperation, space development, and artificial intelligence. Modi's message comes as the international community seeks a peaceful resolution to the Ukraine conflict, with the US pushing for a deal. With tensions between Moscow and Washington running high, Modi's balancing act between the two superpowers will be closely watched. Putin is on his first visit to India in four years, and his two-day state visit is expected to test India's ability to navigate its complex relationships with both Russia and the US.
