Taking to social media platform X, Zelenskyy said, "Today Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi visited Ukraine, marking the first such visit since the establishment of relations between India and independent Ukraine. Our discussions were extensive, including Russia's war against Ukraine and the crucial need for a just peace. We deeply appreciate that the Prime Minister started his visit by honoring the memory of Ukrainian children whose lives were taken by Russian aggression. I am grateful for the humanitarian aid packages India has provided throughout this war."
He further said it is important that as many global actors as possible clearly express their stance and visit Ukraine to demonstrate their support in "tangible terms."
"It is significant to us that India remains committed to international law and supports our sovereignty and territorial integrity--core principles. India is also involved in our work on the Peace Formula, having been represented at the Peace Summit and participating in relevant groups. All of this gives us optimism, and it is important that as many global actors as possible clearly express their stance on the fundamental norms of international law and visit Ukraine to demonstrate their support in tangible terms," the Ukrainian President stated.
