US President Joe Biden and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi discussed the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war and the recent political upheaval in Bangladesh during a phone call. Modi, who recently visited Ukraine, reiterated India’s commitment to peace and stability in the region. Both leaders stressed the need for a peaceful resolution of the conflict in Ukraine, emphasizing respect for international law. They also expressed concerns about the safety of minorities, particularly Hindus, in Bangladesh, where protests led to the ousting of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Modi’s visit to Ukraine, the first by an Indian Prime Minister in modern Ukrainian history, was a significant gesture of support for the country amidst the ongoing war. He urged President Zelenskyy to engage in talks with Russia to end the conflict and offered India’s assistance in facilitating peace negotiations.
