New Delhi: India has excellent diplomatic service and sees the global world order, and Indian diplomats know what to do regarding India’s stand on the issue, the German Ambassador to India on Sunday said.
“It’s not about Ukraine or the EU or NATO… it is about the global world order…We all have to stand together against it,” Lindner on how European Union sees India’s role in the global matter.
India and 34 other countries on Wednesday abstained from a UN General Assembly resolution that censured Russia over its military actions against Ukraine.
India had earlier abstained from the UN Security Council procedural vote to call for a United Nations General Assembly session on the Ukraine crisis. India along with China and UAE had last week abstained from a US-sponsored resolution against Russia`s military actions in Ukraine. Moscow vetoed the resolution.
Russian forces on February 24 launched military operations in Ukraine, three days after Moscow recognized Ukraine’s breakaway regions – Donetsk and Luhansk – as independent entities. Several countries including the UK, the US, Canada, and the European Union have condemned Russia`s military operations in Ukraine and imposed sanctions on Moscow. These countries have also promised Ukraine to help with military aid to fight Russia.
