Ukraine’s ambassador to India Igor Polikha on Tuesday compared Russia’s military campaign against his country to the “massacre arranged by the Mughals against Rajputs”.
Polikha, who paid a visit to the ministry of external affairs (MEA) following the death of an Indian student in Russian shelling in Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, said his country was urging every influential world leader, one of them being Prime Minister Narendra Modi, to use all possible resources against Russian President Vladimir Putin to stop the attack.
“It’s like the massacre arranged by the Mughals against Rajputs. We are asking all influential world leaders, among them Modi Ji, to use every resource against Putin to stop bombing and shelling,” the envoy was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
