Russia Offers For Indian Medical Students Who Had To Left Ukraine
After the visit of Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, Russia offered Indian students to continue their education in Russia, who left Ukraine due to war.
As soon as Russia declared a full-scale war on its neighbor on February 24, thousands of Indian medical students were left detained in the destabilized Ukraine.
After that, “operation Ganga” was launched by the Indian government to evacuate its residents from Ukraine in the midst of the Russian invasion.
For the first time in almost nine months of the conflict, Russia declared on Thursday that Indian students who were forced to leave Ukraine due to the conflict can finish their study in Russia if they so want because the medical curricula in the two nations are identical.
“Due to the nearly identical medical curriculum in Russia, Indian students who left the Ukraine can continue their studies there (as Ukraine). Since the majority of people in Ukraine speak Russian, they are familiar with the local tongue.
In Russia, they are most welcome “News agency ANI cited Russian Consul General Oleg Avdeev’s statement.
As soon as Russia declared a full-scale war on its neighbor on February 24, thousands of Indian medical students were left stuck in the destabilized Ukraine.
After that, “operation Ganga” was launched by the Indian government to evacuate its residents from Ukraine in the midst of the Russian invasion.
Avdeev’s remarks came as foreign affairs minister S. Jaishankar met with his Russian colleague Sergey Lavrov on Tuesday and held discussions in Moscow about a variety of topics involving their respective countries on the bilateral, regional, and international levels.
EAM Jaishankar had stated during his visit to Moscow that “India’s partnership with Russia has functioned to its benefit and New Delhi wants to keep that going.”
India has continuously pressed for talks and a halt to the fighting in Ukraine. Additionally, the effect of the Ukraine conflict on both energy and food costs has frequently been brought up, particularly for weaker nations.
The Indian side, however, did not vote against Russia at the UN and has not yet openly criticized Putin for the invasion that began in February.
