Ahead of Modi-Putin talks, Zelenskyy urges PM to send right signal to Russia; EAM says India unfairly targeted
Saturday, 30 August 2025 () Ahead of Modi's meeting with Putin, Zelenskyy sought India's support for a ceasefire, citing continued Russian strikes on civilians. Jaishankar defended India's stance on the Ukraine conflict amid criticism from the US regarding trade ties with Russia. Zelenskyy expressed hope Modi would convey a strong message to Putin at the SCO summit, emphasizing the need for immediate de-escalation.
Washington’s high-stakes pressure campaign against India has backfired. Despite unprecedented tariffs and repeated threats over Russian oil imports, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has refused to bend. Russian crude still accounts for nearly one-third of India’s imports, and refiners show no signs...

White House is pointing fingers at Europe, accusing EU leaders of obstructing Ukraine peace talks with what it calls “unreasonable” and “fairy-tale” demands. According to Axios, senior US officials say some European governments publicly endorse President Donald Trump’s peace drive while privately pushing Kiev toward unrealistic conditions, prolonging the war. Trump, fresh from his Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin and meetings with Volodymyr Zelensky, is pressing for a lasting peace deal—not just a ceasefire. But frustration is mounting in Washington, with officials warning Europe against escalating while leaving America to pay the cost. The Atlantic reported that Trump has grown impatient with both Kiev’s unwillingness to make concessions and EU refusal to back what he calls a “realistic outcome.” Moscow, meanwhile, insists on neutrality for Ukraine, rejection of NATO expansion, and recognition of new territorial realities, including Crimea and Donbass as part of Russia.

A diplomatic drama is unfolding as US President Donald Trump declared that a trilateral summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky “will happen.” The statement comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he urged a one-on-one between Moscow and Kyiv first. While the Kremlin has not ruled out direct talks, it insists any bilateral must be the final stage once concrete progress is made. Meanwhile, Zelensky has reportedly asked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “send the right signal” to Putin, pressing India’s weight as a potential mediator. Kremlin officials confirm flexibility on some issues, but warn NATO’s militarization of Ukraine makes peace elusive. With Putin currently in China, Trump’s bold promise, Kyiv’s appeals to Modi, and Moscow’s warnings against Western “peacekeepers” are shaping a high-stakes diplomatic gamble that could define the next phase of the Ukraine war.

In conversation with OneIndia’s Nagen Singh, Ambassador S.D. Muni - Special Envoy of India & Former, Member Executive Council, IDSA points out that the Ukraine-Russia war is a European War and India has a very marginal role to play in the negotiations. He points out that this war is like an overhang of the Cold War times and the end of this war depends on how U.S & Russia come to terms regarding it and how Europe responds.
