He emphasized that “every day of war pushes humanity backward,” and called to move from “endless war” to establishing peace.

“We must work to stop military actions. We will continue to support peace talks between Ukraine and Russia. We need to move from endless war to ending the war. This is India’s message. We need an end to the war, not endless war,” said the Indian Prime Minister, as quoted by “News18”.
This is not the first time N. Modi has raised the issue of ending the war in talks with V. Putin. A year ago, at the SCO summit in Tianjin, he already urged V. Putin to end the conflict as soon as possible, noting that a “constructive approach from all parties” is needed. At that time, before going to the meeting, N. Modi spoke on the phone with Volodymyr Zelensky. The Ukrainian president later reported that the Indian Prime Minister agreed to “send the appropriate signal” to Russia and other SCO countries.
Similar calls are also coming from other leaders. On July 25, Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev addressed V. Putin at a forum in Omsk with a proposal to “freeze the conflict” and return to negotiations based on the “Istanbul Agreements 2.0”.
“The nature of this conflict is unclear to many, including us,” said K. J. Tokayev. “It is a pity that young people are dying, this is the gene pool of brotherly nations – Russia and Ukraine… All this must be stopped.”
The Kazakh president emphasized receiving “many signals from Europe and the USA” and decided to voice this position because “people asked to convey” these proposals.
