The Ministry of External Affairs highlighted this dialogue, emphasizing the importance of diplomatic efforts in conflict resolution.

During his visit, Minister Kuleba met with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and Deputy National Security Adviser Vikram Misri. The meeting between Jaishankar and Kuleba, held on Friday, was centered on enhancing constructive dialogue and bolstering bilateral relations between India and Ukraine. This encompassed various sectors such as trade, investment, science and technology, defense, agriculture, health, culture, and education.

The discussions also delved into matters pertaining to the India-Ukraine Inter-Governmental Commission, which covers trade, economic, scientific, technical, industrial, and cultural cooperation through its working groups. Both sides agreed on the importance of these mechanisms in deepening collaboration and fostering mutual growth.

Additionally, there was consensus between New Delhi and Kyiv on the necessity of convening the seventh Inter-Governmental Commission meeting later this year, underscoring the commitment of both nations to furthering their multifaceted partnership across various domains.
