Prime Minister Narendra Modi has first visited Poland and then war-torn Ukraine. Before Poland and Ukraine, the Indian PM hugged President Vladimir Putin during his visit to Russia. The picture of this hug went viral. Ukrainians did not like this picture. Ukrainian President Zelensky also expressed displeasure.
During a press interview, Foreign Minister S Jaishankar also asked the question that why did the Indian PM hug Putin? In this regard, the Foreign Minister replied that the people we meet there hug each other. This may not be a part of your culture but it is a part of our culture. This is a cultural difference that Westerners cannot understand.
