India stands 'firmly for peace' PM Modi tells Ukraine's Zelensky
"We were not neutral from day one, we have taken a side, and we stand firmly for peace," Modi said.
Modi is paying the first visit to Ukraine by an Indian prime minister.
As he pushed for a way forward on ending the Ukraine war, Modi urged Zelensky to sit down for talks with Russia and offered to act as a "friend" to help bring peace.
"No problem can be resolved on a battlefield," Modi said in Poland on Wednesday before heading to Ukraine.
