Jaishankar to visit Russia: EAM to hold talks with Lavrov; trip comes amid tension with US
Wednesday, 13 August 2025 External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar will meet Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on August 21. This meeting follows increased tariffs imposed by the US on Indian imports. National Security Advisor Ajit Doval recently met Russian President Vladimir Putin. Discussions during that meeting were not disclosed. Putin is expected to visit India before the end of 2025.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, in a striking NBC interview, claimed Moscow has no interest in seizing Ukrainian land, stressing Russia already holds the world’s largest territory. He branded Kyiv’s government a “Nazi regime” and argued Ukraine must allow regions that voted to join Russia in 2014 and 2022 to “let people go.” Lavrov framed Moscow’s war aims as protecting ethnic Russians and eliminating security threats, even as Ukraine marked Independence Day with Western allies vowing continued support against Russian aggression.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, alongside India’s S. Jaishankar, accused the U.S. of weaponizing the dollar and using sanctions as “economic colonialism.” Lavrov warned that even allies are unsafe from Washington’s unpredictability, framing BRICS as a counterbalance to Western dominance. India backed the bloc, stressing it is “not anti-West, just not Western.” With BRICS expanding to include nations like Iran, UAE, and Egypt, the bloc now represents over 40% of the global population, aiming to reshape financial systems, technology, and influence in the Global South.

A secret Western plan to secure post-war Ukraine has been revealed, with France, the UK, and top U.S. generals reportedly shaping a strategy to deploy over 10,000 foreign troops after a peace deal with Russia. The proposal includes training forces for Ukraine’s army and a “reassurance force” to stabilize the nation. President Macron confirmed 26 nations have pledged support, forming a “coalition of the willing.” Moscow strongly opposes the plan, warning that any foreign troops could become legitimate targets.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has bluntly rejected Vladimir Putin’s invitation to Moscow for peace talks, calling Russia’s capital a “terrorist” city. Speaking to ABC News, Zelensky said he could not travel while Ukraine remained under relentless missile and drone attacks. Putin claimed security would be guaranteed, but Zelensky insisted discussions must happen in Kyiv. While Trump has attempted to broker talks between both leaders, and Putin signaled openness to direct dialogue, the Kremlin maintains the timing is “not ready.” Hopes for peace remain distant amid ongoing war.

India's National Security Advisor Ajit Doval has launched a scathing critique of foreign media coverage surrounding the recent Operation Sindoor, India’s successful counter-air offensive against Pakistan. During his statement, Doval highlighted the glaring disparity between global headlines and on-ground evidence. “Show me one image of damage on our side. Even a glass pane wasn’t broken,” he said, slamming reports suggesting Pakistani retaliation inflicted damage in India.
Doval emphasized satellite images showcasing before-and-after visuals of 13 Pakistani air bases, including Chaklala and Sargodha, exposed only damage on their side. His remarks sent a powerful message on India's capability and the global narrative war surrounding cross-border strikes. This marks one of the strongest rebuttals to foreign press by an Indian security chief in recent times, asserting India's stance with sharp clarity.
