India appreciates assistance to its citizens during war, says Ukrainian President Zelenskyy

Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke to Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on phone.

The Ukrainian President, who is currently leading his country against the Russian invasion, said that India appreciates the assistance to its citizens during the war.



Modi's phone call with Zelenskyy comes amid India's all out efforts to evacuate its nationals, mostly students, from the country facing attack from Russia.

This is the second time Modi has spoken with Zelenskyy since the war began.

India launched Operation Ganga to evacuate its people from war-torn Ukraine. The main challenge now is to bring back its citizens from Sumy.

Prime Minister Modi thanked Ukrainian authorities for their facilitation in evacuating more than 20,000 Indian citizens from Ukraine.
