Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to visit Kyiv in August, marking his first trip to Ukraine since Russia’s all-out war began in February 2022.

The visit, anticipated to occur next month around Ukraine’s Independence Day, is still being finalised, according to WION. Modi’s trip, which is yet to be confirmed by the Ministry of External Affairs, follows an invitation from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, extended earlier this year during a phone call.

The reports of Modi’s visit come amid a series of high-level exchanges between India and Ukraine. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, along with National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and his Ukrainian counterpart Andriy Yermak, recently held telephone discussions.
