India refuses to sign Global Peace Summit Communiqué, calls it one-sided solution

India does not consider the Global Peace Summit’s Joint Communiqué to be a solution, ‘acceptable for both sides of the war’, therefore it can not lead to peace in Ukraine, the country’s Foreign Ministry wrote on its site on June 16.

This statement came after the country refused to sign the Joint Communiqué following Global Peace Summit in Switzerland.

“Only those options that are acceptable to both sides can lead to a lasting peace,” Indian Ministry wrote in its statement.

“Following this approach, we have decided to avoid association with the Joint Communique or any other document adopted due to this Summit.”

India took part in the Summit to “understand different opinions and options in finding a solution to end the war”, according to the Indian Foreign Ministry.

“Practical interaction between the two sides of the conflict [Ukraine and Russia] is required to ensure future peace, so India will continue cooperation with both Ukraine and Russia,” the statement said.

Global Peace Summit in Switzerland

The Global Peace Summit, initiated by Ukraine took place in Switzerland on June 15-16. About 100 delegations, including 57 heads of state and government from all around the world took part in the summit. Russia has not been invited to the summit. China refused to participate in the event.

The final communiqué of the Global Peace Summit in Switzerland was signed by 80 countries and four organizations, while some abstained – Saudi Arabia, India, Mexico, Iraq, South Africa, Brazil, and the UAE are among them.

The full text of the Joint Communiqué on the foundations of peace was published on June 16 by the Presidential Office. The draft communique, as reported by Reuters earlier in the day, strongly condemns the full-scale Russian invasion, demands the security and safety of nuclear power plants, calls for the release of prisoners and the return of abducted Ukrainians, and emphasizes the maintenance of safe commercial shipping in the Black and Azov seas.

  1. If this is a one-sided solution, just WTF was putler’s solution? Of course this shithole country would never criticise putler. In fact they supported the invasion of Ukraine, by refusing to support UN resolutions condemning the invasion.

    • I guess the Indians didn’t understand the reasoning behind the meeting. It wasn’t to line their pockets with rubles it was to agree on a peace program. Peace is never possible with fascists and especially those who lie, cheat, project and break treaties.

  2. The CRINK’s are now officially the CRIINK’s.
    India; long a putlerite criminal shithole, is now an enemy of Ukraine and an
    enemy of integrity.
    Stop doing business with the cunts.
    Besides the putlerism, it’s a horror place where young girls are gang-raped every single day.

  3. “Only those options that are acceptable to both sides can lead to a lasting peace,”

    As for Aksai Chin, Jammu and Kashmir and Shaksgam Valley?

    When it is for others, the political class is very good at giving lessons in geopolitical pragmatism.
