CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is in Poland, has advocated for diplomacy and dialogues to resolve conflicts, stating that “this isn’t an era of war.” His crucial statement on Wednesday comes ahead of his Ukraine visit at the invitation of President Volodymyr Zelensky.
The Prime Minister made the crucial statement while addressing the Indian diaspora in Poland, thereby becoming the first Prime Minister to visit the country in 40 years. His statement is also reminiscent of the remarks he made while visiting Russia just after the start of the Ukraine war.
Stating that India was the land of Lord Buddha’s legacy, Modi added: “India does not believe in war and advocates for peace in this region. India’s concept is clear: this is not an era of war, and it is the time to unite to tackle the biggest challenges of humanity. Thus, India believes in dialogue and diplomacy to resolve conflict,” PM Modi said.
Modi also told the Indian nationals who arrived in Warsaw to meet him about how he got the opportunity to pay tribute at the Monte Cassino Memorial. “This memorial reminds us of the sacrifice of thousands of Indian soldiers. This is proof of how Indians have performed their duty in every corner of the world.”
He added that India of the 21st century was moving ahead on the path of development while priding itself on its values and heritage.”We Indians are known for our efforts, actions and empathy. Wherever we go, we Indians can be seen making maximum efforts. Be it entrepreneurship, caregivers or our service sector, Indians are bringing laurels to the country through their efforts,” he added.
