Sharjah24 - AFP: Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Kyiv on Friday for talks with President Volodymyr Zelensky on a historic visit in which he is expected to push a settlement to end the war with Russia.
Modi is casting himself as a possible peacemaker, two and a half years after Russia invaded and weeks into a major Ukrainian counter-offensive into Russian territory.
"No problem can be resolved on a battlefield," Modi said ahead of his visit, adding that India supports "dialogue and diplomacy for restoration of peace and stability as soon as possible".
He is the first Indian premier to visit Ukraine.
