Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's diplomatic efforts, along with global support, are credited with preventing a potential Russian nuclear attack on Ukraine, according to a CNN report. US officials claim that PM Modi's outreach, alongside Chinese leader Xi Jinping's statements, influenced President Putin to abandon the nuclear threat amid setbacks on the battlefield. The report suggests that as Ukrainian forces closed in on Kherson, fears of a Russian nuclear response grew. The US sought international support, including from India, to dissuade Russia. India, consistently advocating for peace, had PM Modi emphasizing a commitment to peaceful resolutions during the SCO summit in September 2022.
