Acting Foreign Minister of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha: "As part of our continued dialogue, I had a good call with Indian External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar. 

We exchanged updates on our recent international contacts and I briefed my Indian colleague on the outcomes of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s recent visit to Washington, D.C.

I stressed that the consequences of Russian aggression extend far beyond Ukraine's borders. By attacking civilian vessels in the Black Sea, Russia undermines freedom of navigation and puts global food security at risk. At the same time, its continued war fuels instability in global energy markets, affecting countries far beyond our region.

I reaffirmed Ukraine's commitment to achieving a comprehensive and lasting peace and encouraged India to play an active role in peace efforts. We agreed to remain in close contact".
