Modi to meet Putin as Indian men fight for Russia in Ukraine | DW News

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi is heading to Russia for his first visit since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Modi's trip will include a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, whom he last met in Russia in 2019. India is a major buyer of Russian arms - and has also become a key buyer of Russian oil following Western sanctions placed on Moscow over its actions in Ukraine.
While Modi has not condemned Russia, he is under pressure to secure the release of Indians allegedly misled into fighting for Moscow in Ukraine. Reportedly lured with the promise of lucrative jobs and education but ending up on the frontlines.

india did not receive aid from the usa during their war with china, so they expect no help from them. But India does have issues with usa arming pakistan, which they consider their mortal enemy. India and china might bicker, but they will never enter full scale war. there is not enough hatred to risk it and they are each others largest trade partner. Pakistan on the other hand...........

[@manofsan]

When it comes to Nixon's tilt toward China which lasted 40 years, Indians didn't love that. US has pendulum policy on democracy -- they pretend to love democracy in Western Europe, but then they leaned heavily towards dictatorships like Pakistan and China for decades. Taiwan, HongKong, SouthKorea were dictatorships for decades with little to no representation for their people - but US had no problems with that. When Brits had to leave HongKong -- then only they suddenly introduced democracy and called it sacred. What did the US do to the indigenous population of Diego Garcia, located near India? Why was the elected govt of Imran Khan in Pakistan overthrown in a coup right after Pakistan's army chief was called to Washington to meet with Victoria Nuland? Care to answer, smart guy? I know I'll only hear the sound of silence from you.

I think that Indian P.Murmu and PM Mr. Modi's recognition of the Republic of Abkhazia as an independent country will make a great contribution to world peace. In order for the indigenous peoples living in the north, west and east of the Caucasus to contribute to peace and tranquility in the world in the future
