🇷🇺 🇮🇳 🇺🇸 Carolyn Maloney, a top American Congresswoman, has praised Indian Prime Minister Modi's attempt to broker peace between Russia and the United States over the Ukraine crisis and hoped that his efforts would be helpful in restoring stability in the region.

"Well, I think that right now he [Modi] is trying to broker a peace between Russia and America with Ukraine. I think that's a very positive goal to have. We [India and the US] have strong economic ties, we have strong peace ties, and we have strong similar values, I would say we have the same form of government", Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney said.

On Friday, the Indian PM conveyed to visiting Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov that India stands ready to contribute in any way to the peace efforts to resolve the conflict in Ukraine and called for the early cessation of violence in that country.
