Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar has again advocated an end to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Speaking at the Global Forum panel on India-UAE relations held in Abu Dhabi, he said on Monday that the world was increasingly divided around conflicts such as the war in Ukraine. In such a situation, India can play the role of a bridge. At the same time, Dr. Anwar Mohammad Gargash, Diplomatic Advisor to the President of the United Arab Emirates, has also appealed for a quick end to the conflict in Ukraine.
Speaking at the Global Forum panel on India-UAE relations, S Jaishankar also emphasized the two major divisions currently taking place in the world. He said there is an East-West divide centered around Ukraine and a North-South divide centered around development. The Russia-Ukraine conflict is affecting all of this. He further said that Ukraine is also having an impact on development. To change this situation, a country like India can play an effective role not alone but in collaboration with other countries like UAE. He further said that there is a need to build bridges today.
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that India and the UAE are two very comfortable countries that have known each other for a long time and want to use this relationship in today’s changing world. These relationships are being used not only to survive in the changing world but also to shape the changing world.
Meanwhile, Dr. Anwar Mohammad Gargash, Diplomatic Advisor to the President of the United Arab Emirates, also stressed the early conclusion of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. He said that the war between the two countries would not end politically. It is in our interest to ensure a political process that ends this conflict.
Significantly, on February 24, Russia started a special military operation against Ukraine. Most of the western countries, including America, had not only criticized this action of Russia on a large scale but had also imposed many stringent sanctions.
