prime minister Narendra Modi is set to attend the 16th BRICS summit to be held in Kazan, russia in 2024. At present, the world is grappling with two major wars - one is the Russia-Ukraine war and the other is the Israel-Hamas conflict, in which iran is also involved. In such a situation, the eyes of the world are fixed on the presence of prime minister Modi and his pro-peace approach. The participation of Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian in the BRICS summit is making it more important, especially when PM Modi has repeatedly raised his voice for peace and ceasefire.
PM Modi's diplomatic role
According to a TOI report, PM Modi will meet the leaders of the member countries of the BRICS group as well as the leaders of other countries who have come on invitation. This conference is also important because even before this, india has talked about ceasefire on the global platform and supported it. This conference can become a platform for war-affected countries, where PM Modi can appeal for ceasefire and restoration of peace.
Efforts to stop war
prime minister Modi has previously played an active role in peace efforts during the Russia-Ukraine war. He held talks with leaders of both sides and reflected his commitment to peace. Apart from this, during his meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud abbas in New York in september 2023, PM Modi expressed deep concern over the deteriorating humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip. This diplomatic approach of PM Modi establishes him as a prominent global leader who works for peace and stability.
India's view on ceasefire
india has always supported global peace and ceasefire. The main objective of PM Modi's policies has been to end conflicts and establish peace in war-affected areas. His presence at the BRICS summit can be another step in this direction, where he can communicate with global leaders and appeal for ceasefire in war-torn countries.
