“We appealed for immediate ceasefire in Ukraine and return to dialogue and diplomacy for resolving the crisis,” Modi said.
Frederiksen hoped that India will influence Russia on Ukraine and asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to ‘stop this war and end the killings’.
“My message is very clear that Putin has got to stop this war and to end the killings. I, of course, hope that India will influence Russia also in this discussion,” she said.
