‘Naked Aggression by a country on another’ France ambassador to India on Russia’s war against Ukraine
France’s ambassador to India, Emmanuel Lenain, stated on Saturday that Russia’s offensive in Ukraine violated international law and that leaders in New Delhi and Paris are collaborating to persuade President Vladimir Putin to put an end to the conflict, which is now in its seventh month, according to news agency PTI.
According to Lenain, “We consider it is a naked aggression by a country on another one, on a democracy, an aggression which occurred without any provocation and that it is not in keeping with the ideals of international order.”
He claimed that France and India were also collaborating to lessen the effects of the fight, particularly the threat to the world’s energy and food security. The letter to Putin about the conflict in Ukraine from Prime Minister Narendra Modi was well received.
The French representative stated, “I think that was a very welcome remark, as always, and you have seen that President Emmanuel Macron in his speech in New York to the UN General Assembly has mentioned and quoted Prime Minister Modi.
