BREAKING: Zelensky Urges PM Modi to Meet at UNGA as Trump Threatens India Over Russian Oil

In a high-stakes diplomatic moment, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and proposed a meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in September. The call comes as India faces escalating tariff threats from Donald Trump over its continued purchase of Russian oil — a key source of funding for Moscow’s war machine, according to Washington. Zelensky expressed gratitude for Modi’s warm words but urged stronger support from India, hinting at a potential turning point in New Delhi’s balancing act between East and West. With the Ukraine war dragging into its fourth year, global pressure is mounting.
