On behalf of the Indian Foreign and Defense Ministers on Monday, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken issued a sharp message in support of Ukraine. Blinken noted that the United States will continue to call on nations to support Kyiv, “as we call on all nations to condemn Moscow’s increasingly brutal actions.” Speaking at a news conference after the US-India 2 + 2 ministerial conference in Washington, Blinken said: “Russia’s war against Ukraine is an attack on the people of Ukraine. It’s also an attack on this rule-based order that we both adhere to and defend. “ The United States, Blinken said, “will continue to increase its support for the government and people of Ukraine and to call on other nations to do the same, as we call on all nations to condemn Moscow’s increasingly brutal actions.” . Blinken said Russia’s war “is in stark contrast to the vision shared by the United States and India for a free and open Indo-Pacific” and noted that Moscow’s actions had global repercussions. India continued to buy Russian oil in the aftermath of the Ukraine war and last week abstained from voting to oust Russia from the UN Human Rights Council. The US Secretary of State also said on Monday that “India must make its own decisions on how to approach” the Russian war in Ukraine and that the US believes that “it is important for all countries, especially those with leverage, to push Putin to end the war. war.” “As a general proposal, we are consulting with all our allies and partners on the consequences of Putin’s war, the atrocities committed against the people of Ukraine,” Blinken told a news conference after the US-India 2 + 2 ministerial conference. . Blinken said it was important for “democracies to unite and speak with one voice to defend the values we share – and we share, deeply, the values of freedom, transparency, independence, sovereignty, and these values must be upheld.” everywhere”. The top US diplomat noted that “India’s relationship with Russia has been developing for decades, at a time when the United States could not be a partner with India”, but “times have changed” and the US “is capable of and willing to be a partner of choice with India. “ “And I would also like to note that India is providing significant humanitarian assistance to the people of Ukraine, especially medicines that are much needed and in real demand,” he added. Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar said India was “against the conflict” and “in favor of dialogue and diplomacy” and “an immediate end to the violence”. “We are ready to contribute in any way to these goals,” he said. Blinken said: “As far as oil markets, sanctions, etc. are concerned, I would just like to note that there are scales for energy markets. “Of course, we encourage countries not to buy additional energy supplies from Russia.” “Every country is in a different location, it has different needs, requirements, but we look to our allies and partners not to increase Russian energy markets,” Blinken said. As for oil, Jaishankar said people should look to Europe, suggesting that Europe buys more Russian oil than India. Blinken said President Joe Biden and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi “had a very warm and productive conversation” and “on Russia-Ukraine, talked about ways to mitigate the profound impact it has on world commodities and food prices.” and work together to achieve it. “ Meanwhile, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, who also attended the event, spoke of the importance of keeping the US and India aligned. “As strategic threats converge, especially after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it is more important than ever that the United States and India” come together to defend our common values and maintain order based on international rules, “he said. Austin.

In the Ukrainian villages east of the capital Kiev, where Russian forces have withdrawn, residents are slowly beginning to emerge from hiding and the new reality they face is nothing short of devastating. CNN’s Clarissa Ward toured a pair of Russian-occupied villages for more than a month. He said they found “endless horror stories, executions, arbitrary detentions and more.” A local school was occupied by Vladimir Putin’s invading army, used as a base and left in ruins after being looted and looted by troops. Bloody spots at the main entrance, where the school principal is left wondering how such a atrocity took place. “We are in favor of education. Education is the future. “Our students,” the woman told Ward. “It’s so bad that our conquerors did not understand that. Why steal everything? This is a school. “ “Excuse us, we did not want this war,” said a chalkboard in a classroom visited by Ward, formerly held by Russians. Nearby, a local cemetery houses the bodies of six Ukrainian men who authorities say were executed the first day the Russians arrived. “We dug too fast to avoid being shot,” one woman told CNN. “But there were shootings and heavy bombardment.” Among the dead are a couple of brothers, Igor and Oleg. Their mother survived, but is now mourning. “They were very good children,” he said. “How I want to see them again.” A Ukrainian mother told Ward that she had taken her daughter on March 25. More than two weeks later he does not know where he is or if he survived the Russian invasion. “They said they found information on her phone about their strength,” the mother told Ward. “I was told he was in a warm house. “That he worked with them and would soon be home.” But as Ward revealed, “Victoria never came home.” Amid the danger of certain death, Ukrainians clung to each other and felt proud, with a woman finding solace between blue and yellow stripes, Ward said. “We kept it, we kept it,” the woman told Ward, pointing to the Ukrainian flag given to her husband for his military service. “We hid it.” Now the flag can come out of hiding, as Russian forces have retreated. The village is decimated, but at the moment it is free again. Watch Ward’s on the ground report:
