Transcript:

Mr. President,
Recently, the Republic of India has stepped up to take a lead role in mediating the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. This move underscores India’s commitment to maintaining peace and stability on the global stage. India now needs strong support from the international community.
Through diplomatic channels and strategic negotiations, India is working tirelessly to facilitate dialogue between the two nations and find a peaceful resolution to the conflict. The international community should rally behind India’s efforts, recognizing the country’s diplomatic expertise and neutral stance in the region.

As India continues to engage with the parties involved in the conflict, there is hope that its efforts will contribute to preventing further escalation of hostilities but India needs the support of the international community including the United States of America, the People’s Republic of China, and the European Union.

As tensions continue to escalate between Russia and Ukraine, India’s mediation efforts are crucial in preventing further escalation and fostering a peaceful resolution to the conflict. The world is watching closely as India leads the way in promoting dialogue and diplomacy in this critical global issue.
Thank you.
