As Russia hosts 22 international leaders who represent 45% of the world’s population for a global finance summit, India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi is using the opportunity to call for an end to Russia’s war in Ukraine. Modi told Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday, Oct. 22, he wanted the war to end peacefully and “quickly” as the two met at the annual BRICS Summit.

Additionally, Modi revealed that he was in “constant touch” with Putin over the war in Ukraine. New Delhi is towing a fine line with the warring factions, as it’s promised humanitarian support to Kyiv while failing to openly condemn Russia’s invasion.

Modi visited Moscow in July and Kyiv in August, attempting to spur peace talks between the countries. Complicating India’s position even more is the fact India and China are the two largest purchasers of Russian oil in the world.

When questioned by reporters at the summit, Putin maintained that Moscow would not give away the four regions of eastern Ukraine it currently holds. The Kremlin leader says those areas are now part of Russia and wants Moscow’s long-term security interests considered by Europe.

Meanwhile, Russian sources acknowledged there were increasing talks in Moscow of a possible cease-fire agreement. However, nothing is set in stone as they wait for the results of the U.S. presidential election on Nov. 5.

Putin claimed the West now realizes Russia will win the war in Ukraine but is open to discussion on draft cease-fire agreements reached in Turkey in 2022.
