India has revealed details of New Delhi's diplomatic efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine war, saying talks with both countries and other stakeholders are taking place "at the highest level". The disclosure came on Tuesday even as Russia and Ukraine began peace talks in Abu Dhabi that are being mediated by the US. India has been pushing for a truce covering Black Sea shipping, grain and energy exports, and "a possible non-attack arrangement." Is India playing an active role in the Russia-Ukraine peace process?

At a press briefing on November 10, Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said New Delhi was pursuing diplomatic initiatives involving both Moscow and Kyiv, and other "interested parties".

"Regarding Ukraine, I have told you in detail about the kind of initiatives being taken from our side. We are in talks with both countries, and with others connected to this matter, and these talks are happening at the highest level," Jaiswal said.
