On Wednesday, Russia's Deputy Chief of Mission in India Roman Babushkin welcomed India's "independent position" on the Ukraine crisis.
On Wednesday, Russia welcomed India’s “independent position” with regard to the Ukraine crisis. The country’s Deputy Chief of Mission in India, Roman Babushkin, said India has been playing a vital role as a responsible global power.
“We welcome the independent position of India which it took twice at the UN Security Council," Roman Babushkin said at an online media briefing on Wednesday.
The UN Security Council had held an emergency meet on the Ukraine crisis on Monday night. Speaking there, India’s permanent representative to the UN TS Tirumurti had called for restraint from all sides and stated that the issue could only be resolved through diplomatic dialogue.
Russia’s Deputy Chief of Mission in India Roman Babushkin said that India’s views at the Security Council meet were “reflective of the special and privileged strategic partnership between the two countries”.
He added, “India has been playing a vital role as a responsible global power and it takes an independent and balanced approach to global affairs. Russia-India partnership is based on a strong and solid foundation. It is based on mutual trust.”
“Our cooperation does not represent any threat to anyone and at the same time we keep moving shoulder-to-shoulder to establish a just and equal multipolar world," Roman Babushkin said, hoping that India-Russia ties continue at the same level.
On the Ukraine crisis as a whole, Roman Babushkin claimed that Western powers were trying to destabilise the region. He said the sanctions imposed by the West would be detrimental to the global economy.
