Russia-Ukraine Crisis: Jaishankar reminds the West of post-Soviet politics | First response

India on Tuesday broke its silence on the Russia-Ukraine Crisis. Speaking at an interactive think-tank session in Paris, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar reminded the West that the Ukraine crisis is a result of post-Soviet politics. In a separate interview to a French daily, Jaishankar also said that the situation in Ukraine is the result of a complex chain of circumstances over the last 30 years and most countries are seeking a diplomatic solution. India's stand on the situation has left the West scrambling that had blamed India for being biased with Russia earlier.
