| From Non-Alignment to Global Peacemaker: How Modi's India can influence the Russia-Ukraine Conflict Resolution | |
| —Adarsh | |
| Abstract | |
|
Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's direction, India has seen a dramatic change in its foreign policy, moving
from a non-aligned state to a growing global mediator. India is in a unique position regarding the ongoing war
between Russia and Ukraine since it has maintained solid diplomatic contacts with both countries. The paper
examines how India may have an impact on efforts to resolve conflicts in Eastern Europe because of its historical
non-alignment and present foreign policy of strategic autonomy. India's historical neutrality served as a buffer
against tensions during the Cold War, but the current state of the world necessitates a more proactive and
moderating position. India is becoming increasingly prepared to handle complicated international conflicts, as
evidenced by Modi's foreign policy, which is marked by active participation in international institutions like the
UN and G20. This study assesses India's ability to serve as an impartial mediator in the Russia-Ukraine crisis
by examining its diplomatic relations. India's ability to play a geopolitical balancing act between Russia and the
West provides a means of advancing negotiations. The study concludes that, although India's position as a world
peacemaker is still developing, its strategic diplomacy can greatly influence how this conflict develops and even
help defuse and end hostilities in Eastern Europe.
