New Delhi: After Vladimir Putin , now Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has said that India and China can resolve the Russia-Ukraine conflict. 

Making remarks at Ambrosetti Forum in northern Italy's Cernobbio City, Giorgia Meloni said, “It is obvious that if the rules of international law are broken we will get a multiplication of chaos and crisis, but it is also obvious that with the multiplication of crisis, we will have a natural fragmentation of the geo-economic space, that is, in the long run, economic globalization and questioning of the rules of international law will not walk together. This is what I also said to my Chinese counterparts, we must choose, because the two things do not go together, it is also the reason why I think that in the end nations, like China and India, can play a role and must play a role in resolving the conflict in Ukraine.”

At the event, Meloni also met Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy , who also met PM Modi, last month during his historic visit to Kyiv.

Putin says India, China, Brazil can resolve Ukraine war 

Russian President Vladimir Putin , while addressing the 9th Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, mentioned India's role in providing a "helping hand" in resolving the issue.

Putin said India, China and Brazil could act as 'mediators' in potential peace talks with Ukraine following the ongoing conflict in Kyiv. 

“We respect our friends, partners, who, I believe, are sincerely interested in resolving all issues related to this conflict. This is primarily the People's Republic of China, Brazil, and India. I am constantly in contact with our colleagues on this issue. And I have no doubt that the leaders of these countries, we have a trusting relationship with them, sincerely strive to help understand all the details of this complex process.”
