German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul has urged India to press its close ally Russia to return to peace talks over the war in Ukraine
German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul urged India to press its close ally Russia to return to peace talks over the war in Ukraine, days after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi met Russian President Vladimir Putin at a regional summit in China.
Wadephul told a news conference Wednesday that despite enormous efforts by Europe and the United States, Russia hasn’t been willing to enter negotiations, a challenge New Delhi could possibly address.
“The only demand is that weapons fall silent,” the German minister said during his two-day visit to India, adding that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has shown an intention to make peace.
