Navigating geopolitical shifts | The Russia rush hour
India TodayRussia appreciates New Delhi’s diplomatic balance during its ongoing conflict with Ukraine, said Russian ambassador to India Denis Alipov at the India Today Conclave 2025. Speaking at the session titled ‘Navigating Geopolitical Shifts’, moderated by India Today Group Editorial Director Raj Chengappa, Alipov drew a “red line” on Ukraine’s NATO membership, declaring, “We need to have a Ukraine that does not pose a danger to us.” He emphasised Russia’s claims over Crimea, dismissed Ukraine president Zelensky’s legitimacy and blamed the West for prolonging the conflict. On the second Trump administration, the Russian envoy said, “The approach of the current US administration, in comparison to its predecessors, is showing the right signs to stop the conflict in Europe.” Alipov blamed NATO’s expansion for fuelling the crisis. On Russia’s position vis-a-vis the changing dynamics in India-China relations, Alipov said, “We are in favour ofbuilding confidence between India and China.
