External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar met UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Thursday and discussed the worsening situation in Sudan. During the discussion, Jaishankar also underscored the need for ‘successful diplomacy’ which can lead to an early ceasefire and create a ground situation for the safety and welfare of people.
Other than the Sudan violence, the two leaders also discussed other issues, including India’s presidency of the G20 and the Ukraine conflict.”Good to meet UN Secretary General @antonioguterres in New York today afternoon. Discussed the current developments in Sudan, G20 Presidency and Ukraine,” he tweeted.
“Focus understandably was on Sudan. India strongly supports efforts towards an early ceasefire, leading to creation of safe corridors. Will continue to work closely with UN and other partners in this regard,” he said.
