India has not been a part of any group in the Russia-Ukraine war since the beginning. Despite this, Europe expressed doubt on India. In view of this, Europe’s attempt to encircle India has suffered a major setback. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar exposed the face of Europe from the soil of Finland and presented such evidence which has opened the eyes of the European Union.

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar gave a befitting reply in Finland to the European countries who raised questions on India’s foreign policy. Showing a mirror to Europe, Jaishankar said that Europe was never attacked with Indian weapons, but on the contrary, India was attacked with European weapons. He said in clear words that for years India has been attacked with weapons which were sold by European countries.

S Jaishankar, who arrived in Finland to participate in the Kultaranta Talks program, had discussions with Finland’s Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen and UAE’s Assistant Foreign Minister Lana Nusseibeh. In the panel discussion, when S Jaishankar was asked that there is a perception in Europe that India talks about moral equality regarding the Russia-Ukraine war but also shows a soft attitude towards Russia by buying oil from it. On this the Foreign Minister gave such a reply that the European leaders were stunned.

Showed mirror to Europe
S Jaishankar clearly said that no European country has ever been attacked with Indian weapons. I wish I could say the same for European weapons in the context of India. The Foreign Minister further said that for many years European countries have been selling such weapons which were used in attacks on India. Despite this, India never took any step which threatened the security of Europe.

Jaishankar said that India buys oil on the basis of cost and availability. At that time most of the oil available in the market was Russian. The reason for this was that European countries were buying oil from the Middle East, which has been India’s traditional supplier. In such a situation, circumstances forced us to go in a different direction. He reminded that before 2022, India did not buy oil from Russia in large quantities, but after the Russia-Ukraine war, there was a change in the energy market and America itself had requested that India buy oil from Russia.
