Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s policy of democracy, dialogue and diversification and strategic application is very important for Ukraine, first deputy foreign minister Emine Dzhaparova said on Monday.
Dzhaparova, who arrived at the ministry of external affairs (MEA) today, said, “I think that India should be pragmatic in diversifying its energy resources, diversifying military contracts, in diversifying political interaction. And we feel that there is an extraordinary time that we live in. And as my President Philip Merzelinski says, extraordinary times need extraordinary decisions. So of course, PM Modi with his 3D policy of democracy dialogue and to my knowledge its diversity.
I think that this no-era of war and strategic application is really, really important.”
“So we hope that India and Ukraine will be even though we are distant geographically, but we will become closer physically and politically and in many other ways.”
Talking about Ukraine’s 1,500 years of history, the minister said that her country had never attacked anyone like India. She also stated that Ukraine is the victim of unprovoked and neocolonial war.
“We also feel that we have this arbitrary by promoting the values justice of peace, as your Prime Minister in Samarkand said, that it’s not an era of war. I mean, we do support this purely and fully, but unfortunately, we have aggressive countries who question the existence of other countries and then the question of India’s involvement as a leader in the Global South, as a G20 presidency. I think that we hope that India would be involved and engaged in global issues and challenges, economic challenges, energy challenges, and nuclear challenges to a greater extent because the Ukrainian issue is a weakness port today from Russia,” she said.
