India's Modi tells Russia's Putin that the war in Ukraine must end for humanity's sake

Modi said every day of war sets humanity back and urged Putin to back peace efforts as the two leaders also reviewed bilateral ties.

  • On Monday, August 31, 2026, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Russian President Vladimir Putin met on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation Summit in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, to discuss bilateral ties.
  • Talks covered the Russia-Ukraine conflict and bilateral sectors including energy, trade, and defence, as India consistently advocates for dialogue and diplomacy to resolve international conflicts.
  • "We must move away from endless wars towards an end to war," Modi said, emphasizing that every day spent in war sets humanity back and that India supports all peace efforts.
  • President Putin expressed gratitude for India's diplomatic engagement, while Modi formally invited him to the BRICS Summit in New Delhi this September to further strengthen India-Russia relations.
  • Geopolitical pressures persist as the ongoing war involving Iran in the Middle East disrupts energy flows and global oil markets, increasing India's reliance on Russian crude.
