New Delhi [India], March 20 (ANI): Prime Minister <keyword id="19895781" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="narendra-modi" source="keywords">Narendra Modi</keyword> held a telephonic conversation with Russian President <keyword id="19900702" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="vladimir-putin" source="keywords">Vladimir Putin</keyword> on Wednesday and reiterated India's stand on dialogue and diplomacy as a way for the resolution of the ongoing war against <keyword id="19895162" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="ukraine" source="keywords">Ukraine</keyword>, said an official release. "The two leaders agreed to make concerted efforts towards further strengthening the Special &amp; Privileged Strategic Partnership between the two countries in the years to come. They also reviewed progress in various issues of bilateral cooperation, and exchanged views on regional and global issues of mutual interest," an official release said. "While discussing the Russia-Ukraine conflict, PM reiterated India's consistent position in favour of dialogue and diplomacy as the way forward. The two leaders agreed to remain in touch," it added. Meanwhile, Kremlin also shared details of President <keyword id="19911498" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="putin" source="keywords">Putin</keyword>'s conversation with <keyword id="19899320" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="pm-modi" source="keywords">PM Modi</keyword> and said that the former informed the latter about the ongoing situation in the war-torn region of Ukraine. President Putin also emphasised Ukraine's refusal to take political and diplomatic steps to settle the conflict. "The President of <keyword id="19895159" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="russia" source="keywords">Russia</keyword> gave his assessment of the current state of affairs in the zone of the special military operation. He emphasised Kiev's categorical refusal to take political and diplomatic steps to settle the conflict," the President of Russia said in a statement. "In connection with the events of June 24, Narendra Modi expressed understanding and support of the resolute actions by the Russian leadership to protect law and order and ensure stability in the country and security of its people," it added. On June 24, 2023, <keyword id="19911496" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="yevgeny-prigozhin" source="keywords">Yevgeny Prigozhin</keyword>, the chief of the Wagner Group, led an armed rebellion against the Russian defense minister. The rebellion started in Rostov-on-Don, in southern Russia, and forces loyal to Prigozhin marched toward Moscow. The rebellion was called off after Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko intervened. In a televised address on June 24, President of Russia Vladimir Putin denounced Wagner's actions as treason and pledged to quell the rebellion. Further in the conversation, both leaders discussed the bilateral cooperation between the two countries and expressed their satisfaction over the increase in trade. "During the discussion of topical issues of bilateral cooperation, the leaders noted the importance of further consistent implementation of large-scale joint projects in different areas and voiced their satisfaction over a tangible increase in trade in 2022 and the first quarter of the current year," Kremlin said. "Special attention was paid to interaction in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation and the G20, in which India is holding the rotating presidency this year, and in the BRICS format. In addition, Narendra Modi told Vladimir Putin about his international contacts, including his recent visit to Washington," it added. The statement said further, "The conversation was substantive and constructive. The leaders confirmed their mutual desire to strengthen the Russia-India specially privileged strategic partnership and planned future contacts." Earlier in 2022, PM Modi's advice to Russian President Vladimir Putin over the Ukraine war during a bilateral meeting on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization's summit in Uzbekistan's Samarkand has grabbed the attention of leading international media organisations. "Today's era is not of war and I have spoken to you about it on the call. Today we will get the opportunity to talk about how we can progress on the path of peace. India and Russia have stayed together with each other for several decades," PM Modi told Putin expressing his concerns about the impact of the war on food and energy security. "We spoke several times on the phone about India-Russia bilateral relations and various issues. We should find ways to address the problems of food, fuel security and fertilizers. I want to thank Russia and Ukraine for helping us to evacuate our students from Ukraine," he added. International media praised PM Modi's diplomatic acumen, who in a friendly tone pushed the concerns of the global community to its long-standing friend Russia. American publication -CNN praised PM Modi's hold on world politics and reported " Indian leader Narendra Modi tells Putin: Now is not the time for war." (ANI)

PM Modi stresses dialogue, diplomacy for Ukraine crisis resolution with Putin

An Indian student was killed in Ukraine's Kharkiv on Tuesday morning in shelling as the war between Russia and Ukraine reached big cities' streets. India's Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said, "With profound sorrow we confirm that an Indian student lost his life in shelling in Kharkiv this morning. The Ministry is in touch with his family." He also said: "We convey our deepest condolences to the family." India's foreign secretary Harsh Vardhan Shringla is calling in Ambassadors of Russia and Ukraine to reiterate India's demand for urgent safe passage for the Indian nationals who are still in Kharkiv and cities in other conflict zones. "Similar action is also being undertaken by our Ambassadors in Russia and Ukraine," Bagchi said. Russia shelled the Ukrainian city of the second largest city Kharkiv on Tuesday damaging various installations over there. The Russian troops have also surrounded Ukraine capital city Kyiv on Tuesday and asked civilians to leave the city on the urgent note. "All civilians in the city can freely leave the Ukrainian capital along the Kyiv-Vasylkiv highway. This direction is open and safe," Russian defence ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said. Immediately thereafter, the Indian Embassy in Ukraine asked the stranded nationals to leave Kyiv immediately by any means. "All Indian nationals, including students are advised to leave Kyiv urgently today. Preferably by available trains or through any other means available," Indian Embassy said in an advisory. Russian and Ukrainian troops continued to engage in fighting on Kharkiv streets as war entered into the fifth day after Russian President Vladimir Putin called for military operation.

Budget carrier <keyword id="6358032" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="spicejet" source="Orion">SpiceJet</keyword> will operate a special flight to Budapest, Hungary to evacuate stranded Indians. The airline will operate a special evacuation flight to bring back stranded Indians, who managed to find their way out of the hostilities between Russia and Ukraine. Hungary shares a land border with Ukraine, many Indian nationals, including students have made their way to the border. The airline will use its Boeing 737 MAX aircraft for this special flight. "The aircraft will fly to Budapest from Delhi and the return fight will operate via Kutaisi, Georgia," the airline said in a statement. "SpiceJet is planning to operate more evacuation flights and is in discussion with concerned authorities." Till now, Tata Group-led Air India has been operating flights to Bucharest, Romania and Budapest, Hungary. These flights being are operated as special government charters to bring back stranded Indians. Earlier, Air India operated direct special flights to Kiev but it had to stop these operations due to a NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) issued over the closure of Ukrainian air space. One of Air India's flight bound for Kiev from New Delhi returned to the national capital's IGI Airport after NOTAM was announced at Kiev airport on last Thursday. Last Tuesday, the airline had carried out the first of its special flight operations ferrying Indian citizens from Ukraine.

The Indian government's willingness to dismiss pro-Russia misinformation about Ukraine belies how complicated its position is on the issue. It abstained on a UN Security Council resolution condemning Russia. While its language on the war has hardened since the invasion, it's still the lone member of the 10 largest economies, other than China, that has yet to openly criticize Russia or join economic sanctions against the country.While India's position has been evolving, pro-Russia, pro-Modi false claims have had their uses. They can blunt criticism that New Delhi has faced domestically for its failure to evacuate the 18,000 students trapped in Ukraine sooner, at a time when Indians have gone to the polls in regional elections.Pudur, who did not respond to a request for comments from Insider, runs one of several thousands of Indian social-media accounts propagating Kremlin talking points about a conflict taking place more than 2,500 miles away. The failure to evacuate the students sooner sparked criticism of the Modi administration. In response, pro-government handles began promoting untruths that promoted New Delhi's efforts and supported Putin, according to fact-checkers.By March 9, #OperationGanga — the name of the Modi government's mission to rescue citizens from Ukraine — was the top-trending topic on Twitter in India, while #IStandWithPutin had more tweets than #StopPutinNOW. All of this played out as five Indian states voted for their legislatures through February and early March.<div type="image" title="Screenshot of a Twitter trending topics in India" height="2048" width="922" msid="90491863" hostid="261"></div>As India has come under international pressure to publicly condemn its longtime friend, Russia, pro-Modi handles have amped up efforts to defend that position, often relying on Moscow's untruths."Misinformation becomes most useful when you have to shape a new narrative, or — in the view of those peddling lies — correct a narrative," said Pratik Sinha, the cofounder of Ahmedabad-based fact-checking platform Alt <keyword id="11893589" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="news" source="Orion">News</keyword>, which has busted many of the false claims."The government doesn't mind if it has to issue a denial later. By then, their narrative has taken hold."India's official position on the conflict has evolved. Before the invasion, its public statements emphasized a desire for a peaceful resolution and respect for "legitimate security concerns of all countries," a rhetorical concession to Russian President <keyword id="11899444" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="vladimir-putin" source="Orion">Vladimir Putin</keyword>'s claims.Since February 25, though, its statements have instead underscored the need to respect the "sovereignty and territorial integrity" of all nations. Modi has spoken with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy twice since the start of the war, and India is sending humanitarian aid to Kyiv.Rajeswari Pillai Rajagopalan, the director of the Center for Security, Strategy, and Technology at the New Delhi-based Observer Research Foundation think tank, told Insider that India's position was becoming "harsher and harsher toward Moscow" because "Russia has put India in a tough spot, and India isn't happy about that." India's willingness to counter Kremlin misinformation seemingly reflects this growing distance, even if it embarrasses pro-government social-media handles.Earlier this month, as the students trapped in Kharkiv in eastern Ukraine pleaded for help from Modi, the Indian embassy there asked them to leave the besieged city within a specified window of time. Soon, a flood of tweets claimed Modi had managed to stop the war altogether for a few hours to enable the evacuation."India paused a war for 6-8 hours just to get Indians out - a war that nobody, not the US, not the EU, has been able to stop," the <a href="https://twitter.com/Iyervval/status/1499102818547822594?s=20&amp;t=ikywqzwfvSlbvGXxmn9xfQ">defense analyst and self-described "theologian of the Indian right" Abhijit Iyer-Mitra</a> tweeted, garnering nearly 10,000 retweets.<a href="https://twitter.com/mvmeet/status/1499217585766043650?s=20&amp;t=wmKL2ZQv_cJOK4B5r2mslA"></a><div type="image" title="Screengrab of false tweet claiming India 'paused the war in Ukraine for 6-8 hours'" height="341" width="614" msid="90491864" hostid="261"></div><a href="https://twitter.com/mvmeet/status/1499217585766043650?s=20&amp;t=wmKL2ZQv_cJOK4B5r2mslA">Mahesh Vikram Hegde,</a> the founder of an online platform called Postcard News and an emphatic Modi supporter, tweeted: "That's the power of Modi."<div type="image" title="Screengrab of false tweet saying Indian PM Narendra Modi negotiated a ceasefire in Ukraine." height="502" width="620" msid="90491866" hostid="261"></div>Official handles of the BJP, Modi's ruling political party, <a href="https://twitter.com/BJP4Maharashtra/status/1499392091247419393?s=20&amp;t=V1qll1cG5LhjPCcCVsZ31g">further amplified the claim</a>. Hours later, India's foreign ministry called it "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDZQiMmoICg&amp;t=1268s">absolutely inaccurate</a>."On March 14, Alt News busted another fake claim that <a href="https://www.altnews.in/no-these-arent-pak-and-turkish-students-who-used-indian-flag-to-escape-ukraine/">Turkish and Pakistani students</a> waved Indian flags to ensure safe passage. In February, it also busted a claim an <a href="https://www.altnews.in/air-india-flight-in-war-tone-ukraine-no-misinfo-believed-to-be-true/">Air India plane had braved Ukrainian airspace</a> alone to rescue them.Alt News identified more than 100 accounts that shared a fake image purporting to show this, including one called "Modi Once More" and another that said it showed "the power of new India."<div type="image" title="Screengrab of a tweet showing a screengrab of a map of Ukraine and one plane entering its airspace" height="885" width="605" msid="90491869" hostid="261"></div>At the time, Modi and his colleagues <a href="https://twitter.com/rssurjewala/status/1497805182180093953?s=20&amp;t=K1SYuTj8tLJAU2SGWdSUzA">were facing accusations from the opposition</a> of focusing on election campaigns and ignoring the trapped students.Srijit Das, a fact-checker with another anti-misinformation platform, Boom Live, told Insider that political leaders were trying to help Modi by encouraging the spread of pro-India misinformation about Ukraine."When the government was facing severe pressure from all across the country, some political leaders and party workers were actively working on their gadgets to distract people," Das said.The false claims aren't limited to India's evacuation effort. As India walks a diplomatic tightrope over the conflict, pro-Modi handles have continued to push pro-Russia misinformation justifying the invasion and underplaying the severity of the crisis. Footage from a climate-crisis protest was used to suggest that the <a href="https://twitter.com/PirateHeartArt/status/1498678466321035266?s=20&amp;t=0FFElVUry8M31EgYKQBGmg">war is a hoax.</a>Pudur has repeated unsubstantiated assertions that the <a href="https://twitter.com/arunpudur/status/1501401233319690240?s=20&amp;t=ZoAc2-2rGyrdQfMzo8CFdQ">United States provoked the invasion by funding dangerous biolabs</a> in Ukraine.The pro-Russian slant of misinformation doesn't surprise Somdeep Sen, an international-affairs analyst at Roskilde University, Denmark, who noted the majority of India's military equipment is sourced from Russia, forcing it into a tactical balancing act.Sen said the Indian government was on "the wrong side of history" over its response to the invasion of Ukraine but added that Modi's muscular nationalism prevented it from allowing "any narrative that indicates the folly of India's position on Russia." Alt News' Sinha said fact checks — and official denials from the foreign ministry — rarely reach as many people as the viral spread of misinformation."In reshaping the narrative, those spreading disinformation are winning," he said.

Then they came towards us and yelled: 'Go back to your country.'"Press agency OKO shared a video on social media in which aid workers described being intimidated and attacked near Przemyśl station.There are several far-right groups active in Poland, known for hosting an annual nationalist rally to mark Independence Day, often displaying racist and white supremacist slogans.In the last parliamentary election in October 2019, the far-right coalition party Konfederacja Wolność i Niepodległość gained 6.8% of the vote, gaining them 11 seats in Parliament, according to the monitoring group, <a href="https://hopenothate.org.uk/chapter/europeanstateofhate-spotlight-poland-konfederacja/">Hope not Hate</a>.

Rugiatu Faith Maxey, a US citizen born in Sierra Leone, told the group that a driver announced that "<a href="https://www.hrw.org/news/2022/03/04/ukraine-unequal-treatment-foreigners-attempting-flee">all blacks need to get off the bus</a>."Police in Poland, meanwhile, warned that groups linked to the far-right have been circulating fake reports on social media about non-white refugees arriving from Ukraine committing violent attacks in Poland.Przemyśl police chief Mariusz Ciarka told European outlet <a href="https://www.euractiv.com/section/politics/short_news/russia-spreads-disinfo-to-undermine-poles-refugee-support/">Euractiv</a>: "There is false information in social media that serious criminal offenses have taken place in Przemyśl and border counties: burglaries, assaults and rape.""We – the Polish police, government, and all of Europe – have to fight with disinformation and fake news that appear related to this issue and could cause an escalation of certain behaviors," he said.Ciarka said that the disinformation undermined the country's efforts to welcome those fleeing violence and suggested Russian actors could be responsible.Poland has been at the forefront of efforts to provide refuge for those escaping from Ukraine.The Polish government has said foreigners without a valid visa can enter and remain for 15 days.
