Zelenskyy also wrote, “I had a long and productive conversation with Prime Minister @narendramodi. We discussed in detail all key topics, especially bilateral cooperation and the broader diplomatic landscape. I thank him for his kind words for our citizens. I briefed him on the situation of Russian attacks, in particular the attack on the bus station in Zaporizhia, where dozens of people were injured. This attack was a deliberate targeting of a civilian site. At a time when there are possibilities of peace, Russia continues its policy of aggression and occupation instead of ceasefire.”
