UK foreign secretary Liz Truss is visiting India on Thursday as part of Britain’s “wider diplomatic push on Ukraine” ahead of NATO and G7 meetings next week to tackle Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Truss “will point to the importance of all countries reducing strategic dependency on Russia at this time of heightened global insecurity,” the UK foreign office said in a statement ahead of her visit.
She also wants the UK to deepen security and defence ties with India and will announce a new joint cyber programme to protect online infrastructure in both countries from cyber attacks.
Truss is the latest in a string of top Western leaders making a beeline for India to discuss the Ukraine crisis and to nudge New Delhi to change its position on the issue at multilateral forums such as the United Nations. She is expected to meet external affairs minister S Jaishankar, defence minister Rajnath Singh and finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman during her day-long visit.

In her meeting with Jaishankar, Truss “will say Russia’s invasion of Ukraine underlines the importance of democracies working closer together to deter aggressors, reduce vulnerability to coercion and strengthen global security”, the statement said. Truss wants to reduce global strategic dependence on Russia ahead of the NATO and G7 meetings.

India has a big big big decision to make - neither camp is prepared to let India sit on the fence anymore and there are consequences for India - no matter what decision it makes - there is no win win scenario for India right now...

India cannot reduce its dependency on Russia abruptly. It will be a suicide move.

But as long as Russia remains antagonistic to and isolated from the west, India has to slowly move away from Russia. Especially so in the field of defense cooperation.

Although Modi and BJP are gandus, watching the west grovel at India’s feet to become cannon fodder against sino-russ nexus is strangely satisfying.
