He spoke with the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi. He told about the situation in diplomacy. We are actively preparing for each of the issues on the agenda of the yeshiva in Abu Dhabi. From the side of Ukraine, there is always a constructive attitude, and the same willingness to go to escalation from Russia is required.
The prime minister said repeatedly, especially to the Russian leader, that now is the time to end the war, not to continue it.
It is important that India discovers what steps and dialogue with other leaders it can take to bring the war to an end. One of the directions could be food security. We discussed how Russia is blocking grain exports in the Black Sea. India is ready to act as an intermediary in the establishment of food corridors, and we trust continued efforts in this direction.
Russia must understand that its economy and hundreds of millions of people in various countries suffer from blocked sea lanes. It was agreed that the teams would be in touch on these and other issues.
