      Dumb question, but did Ukraine do something towards India after that? I haven’t heard about this.

        I’m gonna try, I assume I’m wrong and someone can hopefully correct me…

        India has a friendlier or neutral stance towards Russia due to its history with the Soviet Union. Something about a ship nearby some decades ago during the cold war scaring off some antagonistic ships?

        I think India is also part of the non-aligned movement? The recent thing was a UN vote where India abstained? Something about recognizing something about the conflict… I think after that there was a statement by Ukraine or the Ukrainian President saying something like uh, wow I can’t believe you didn’t like super support us.
