British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak intends to discuss the armed conflict in Ukraine with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. During this meeting, Sunak will urge Modi to influence Russia in connection with this conflict. This information was reported by the Financial Times.
Rishi Sunak has become the first British Prime Minister of Indian origin and is on his way to New Delhi to attend the annual G20 summit. This will be his first visit to India as prime minister.
During the expected bilateral talks between Sunak and Modi, issues related to the trade agreement that the two countries are working on will be discussed.
The British Prime Minister's spokesperson emphasized that the visit to India will be used to demonstrate support for Ukraine and "further strengthen international support."
"We will use meetings with Modi or elsewhere to encourage him to use that influence to end the brutal invasion," the spokesman said.
However, despite Sunak's efforts, some analysts believe that India may not take a more decisive stance against Russia and its interference in Ukraine.
