In an interview with ‘Sputnik’ Radio, she pointed out that ‘the final statement might not be agreed upon by India if the terrorist activities in the Kashmir region are not mentioned.’ She emphasized that ‘President Putin’s presence in China is of great importance, especially after the Alaska summit.’
In response to a question, she explained that ‘the visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to China, the first of its kind in more than seven years, is significant, especially given the tensions that existed between China and India.’ She stated, ‘We are witnessing today that the world is shifting from a unipolar to a multipolar world. These countries, whether China, Russia, India, or others, do not want to antagonize the United States but wish to compete legitimately.’
Regarding the Sino-Indian rapprochement, she confirmed that ‘Russia played a role in bringing the two countries closer and setting aside their differences.’ She concluded by saying, ‘The atmosphere is positive for issuing a statement that everyone will sign, and this view will be a blow to the West, showing that there is consensus among these countries that have set aside their differences to confront the West, especially the United States, in light of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and Israeli aggressions.’
