Modi In Ukraine: How India's SPG Thwarted Threat To Indian PM In Kyiv | Report

India's Special Protection Group (SPG) took extensive security measures during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Kyiv. Bullet-resistant shields were deployed after anti-India sentiment among the Indian diaspora was reported. About 60 SPG commandos, led by Director Alok Sharma, ensured PM Modi's safety while he paid tributes at the Gandhi statue. The heightened security was a response to concerns about New Delhi's perceived proximity to Russia amid the ongoing conflict. Click to know more.

Modhi wanted to be friendly with Kiev. Modhi's straightforwardness shows that he could be a trusted mediator to stop the war and successful in bringing in Peace for Russia and Ukraine. Most probably he will succeed with the strategic planning and networking potential of his External Affairs Minister Jeyashankar who is an expert on straight talk and foreign relations supported by a professional staff on foreign policy matters. Good Luck!

Jeder der verhandelt, jeder der Frieden will sollte, ist willkommen. Und wenn man sich die Länder ansieht die es versuchen, fehlen die, die den Krieg angezettelt haben und amit meine ich nicht Russland, das Land hat nur, nach mehrfachen Versuchen seine Position verständlich zu machen, die Reißleine gezogen. Wofür das alles, für eine Riege unverbesserlicher Alter und machtgeiler Männer und einer unverbesserlichen Frau und gegen die große Mehrheit der eigenen Bevölkerung, die trotz hetze und Falschmeldungen das Spiel durchschaut.

I REALLY DONT KNOW WHY OUR PM MODI JI IS GOING TO SUCH HEAVY RISKY AREAS. EVEN THOUGH OUR SECURITY MAY BE ALERT OR VIGILANT BUT WE DONT KNOW THE RISK THAT MIGHT COME, SO OUR SPG AND OTHER COMMANDOS SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK THE GUESTS THOROUGHLY BEFORE ALLOWING ANYONE NEAR OUR PM. OUR PM IS VERY LARGE HEARTED AND GOES NEAR THE PUBLIC WHICH IS VERY RISKY AND THE SECURITY SHOULD NOT ALLOW THIS. HE SHOULD BE GUARDED WITH CARE AND CAUTION AND ALL EFFORTS SHOULD BE DONE TO MAKE HIS JOURNEY VERY VERY VERY SAFE.

@@jamesaron1967 Zelensky's curse is real and no laughing matter. Anybody who goes to Kiev once too often and touches or closely interacts with him is bound to come across bad luck. Till now every country of such leaders has fallen into bad times. Nobody can stop that. Look at Britain. Very generous with Ukraine. Sunak suffered the worst defeat the Tories have seen in 145 years. Lines in soup kitchens are long a record 14% British school children are going to bed hungry every night. Britain has never seen a situation like this, not forgetting the rioting last week, British economy tanking and London stock exchange due for a huge correction. No social housing. Ukraine self explanatory. USA go and see the major cities, the rust belt, joblessness, homelessness, 150000 deaths due to Fentanyl. The world's super power is unable to seal it's Southern Border. Official stats say 8 million illegals entered the country. Unofficially numbers could be as high as 20 million. No housing. Cost of everything has gone up. Rents up by 50% in some places. Darrien Gap is teaming with illegal immigrants ready to assault USA. Germany economy down. Deindustralisation at full speed. No hope left. France Macron lost the elections almost. Riots in banlieus. Ugly rumours about his wife. They say they have proof. New Caledonia wants independence. Olympics Opening Ceremony fiasco. Half of East European countries angry with France for mocking Christianity. Poland maybe facing the Russian Army soon. Many Polish soldiers dead in Ukraine. Slovakia PM almost got assassinated. Moldova may lose independence soon.
