PM Modi meets Zelenskyy in Kyiv, expresses solidarity during his historic visit to Ukraine

During his first and historic visit to Ukraine, a sombre Prime Minister Narendra Modi met an equally stoic Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv. Both the leaders were seen hugging and shaking hands together. As the two leaders toured the war-torn country’s Martyrologist Exposition, PM Modi’s hand remained firmly on Zelenskyy’s shoulder — a symbolic gesture of India’s solidarity with Ukraine. During his visit, PM Modi honoured the memory of children at the National Museum of the History of Ukraine. Besides this, he also paid homage to the Gandhi statue at the Botanical Garden.
