Narendra Modi's pointed remarks came just moments after he was welcomed to the Kremlin by Vladimir Putin.
India n Prime Minister Narendra Modi has told Russia n President Vladimir Putin that the deaths of innocent children is painful and terrifying.
Ukraine says it has recovered fragments of a Russian Kh-101 cruise missile at the children's hospital, which was hit on Monday, local time, during a wave of Russian attacks that killed at least 41 Ukrainians across the country. "But even in that, when innocent children are killed, the heart bleeds and that pain is very terrifying."In September 2022, he told Mr Putin that "today's era is not an era of war".India, however, has not condemned Russia's invasion and has taken the opportunity to buy record amounts of discounted Russian oil as sanctions have decimated Moscow's trade with the West.
"Solutions are not possible on the battleground. Amidst guns, bullets and bombs, peace talks cannot be successful.The timing of the Ukrainian hospital incident was embarrassing for Mr Modi as he began his two-day visit on Monday. Separately, US President Joe Biden called the latest attacks on Ukraine "a horrific reminder of Russia's brutality".
"The prime minister strongly raised the issue of early discharge of Indian nationals who have been misled into the service of the Russian army," Indian Foreign Secretary Vinay Mohan Kwatra told reporters in Moscow as Mr Modi wrapped up a two-day visit.Mr Kwatra said the situation affected about 35–50 Indians, of whom 10 had already been brought home.
