India: Ukraine War - India To Reopen Embassy In Kyiv

NEW DELHI, 14 May 2022, (TON): The Indian embassy in Ukraine shut after Russia invaded the former Soviet republic, will reopen shortly in Kyiv.

The embassy operations in the Ukraine Capital had shut down in early March after Russian shelling intensified days after the February 24 invasion.

On March 13, the embassy had relocated to Warsaw after most Indian nationals were evacuated from Ukraine.

In a communique, the foreign ministry said “the Indian Embassy  in Ukraine, which was temporarily operating out of Warsaw (Poland), would be resuming its operation from Kyiv w.e.f 17 May 2022.”

Several Western political leaders including UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau have recently visited Irpin and other residential areas around the Ukrainian capital, where Russian forces have been accused of killing hundreds of civilians.
