Respected Sir,

It is high time for New Delhi to act as a good Samaritan by negotiating a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine. Although India has frequently abstained itself from casting a vote in the United Nations General Assembly and in the United Nations Security Council against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, it has been vocal in highlighting the importance of the UN Charter, international law and respect for the territorial integrity and the sovereignty of the states.

As per the latest reports of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, atleast 8000 non combatants have been confirmed dead in Ukraine since the invasion last year.

Nearly 18 million people are in dire need of humanitarian assistance, with 14 million people displaced from their homes. Thus, the grim data provides sufficient reasons for not grinding the war further.

Building stronger ties with Russia without hurting the sentiments of the West has always been the challenging part of New Delhi’s foreign policy. And since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, this policy has been put to some of the harshest tests.

As India can ill afford to hamper its diplomatic ties with none of the two powerful blocs with whom it shares a bunch of vested interests, it will be intriguing to see how Prime Minister Narendra Modi convinces the Russian President for an armistice.
