New York, December 7 : India has consistently called for an immediate cessation of hostilities and a return to diplomacy and dialogue, according to India's Permanent Representative to the UN, Ruchira Kamboj.India has urged both sides to return to diplomacy and dialogue, as well as supporting all diplomatic attempts to end the conflict.We believe that no solution will come at the cost of innocent lives.On numerous occasions, our Prime Minister has met with Ukrainian and Russian Presidents and reiterated India's position.
The war has resulted in the loss of lives and hardship for the Syrian people, especially for women, children, and the elderly, with millions becoming homeless and displaced in neighboring countries, according to her.Attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure in recent weeks have stung Ukraine and other low-income countries affected by the Moscow-Kyiv conflict, according to Kamboj, We are supplying humanitarian assistance to Ukraine and other countries in the Global South who are in financial need.We are providing economic assistance to low-income countries in the Global South, she said.The effect of the Ukraine crisis, she said, isn't restricted to Europe. On these critical issues facing the Global South, we must all recognize the importance of equity, affordability, and accessibility.Open markets must not be used to perpetuate injustice and spread discrimination.Children make up a third of humanity; the most significant third, as they are the future of the world.Children are also the most vulnerable to hardship, particularly in times of war, and therefore need additional protection and attention. Although the national government is in charge of ensuring that they have access to education, the international community is expected to do its best to help those affected by the conflict.India is a signatory to the Convention on the Rights of the Child and is appreciative of UNICEF's continuing efforts to alleviate the children's sufferings.We also support UNICEF's efforts to extend its operations, according to Indias envoy to the United Nations.During her address, Kamboj recalled the growing number of foreign students in Ukraine and said that India helped facilitate the safe return of 22,500 Indian nationals, the majority of whom were students in various Ukrainian universities. We applaud the Ukrainian government's relaxations in the case of medical students this academic year.It is also timely to note that India launched Operation Ganga to re-unite Indian nationals who were stranded in Ukraine after Russias invasion.Kamboj wishes that the international community would continue to respond positively to the call for humanitarian assistance.India has also provided financial assistance to the reconstruction of a learning center, according to Kamboj, who spoke at the UNSC meeting.
