TOI Correspondent from Washington: Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said in an interview to Fox News that he thinks "India is mostly with us" and that he hopes US President Donald Trump will be able to convince New Delhi to stop purchasing Russian oil.
"Yes, we have these questions with energy, but I think that President Trump can manage it with Europeans, make more close and strong relations with India," Zelenskyy said. "And, I think, we have to do everything not to withdraw Indians and they will change their attitude to the Russian energy sector (sic)," Zelenskyy said while responding to a question on Chinese and Indian purchases of Russian oil helping Moscow.
Trump, meanwhile, made a stunning departure from his previous calls for Ukraine to make territorial concessions to Russia, asserting on Tuesday that he now believes Kyiv can "fight and WIN all of Ukraine back in its original form" with the support of the European Union and Nato, "and, who knows, maybe even go further than that!"
The turnaround came after Zelenskyy met Trump on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York, even as Washington continued to pressure New Delhi to stop buying Russian oil.
