"Today's era is not one of war"/ Military and diplomatic pressure
Putin with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi

Pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin has increased both on the battlefield and in the international arena. On the ground, Ukrainian troops continued on Saturday to push their counterattack, with the aim of advancing further into northeastern Ukraine, a region that is already partially controlled by local troops.

At a high-level meeting held in Uzbekistan within the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, an eight-nation security alliance, Mr. Putin vowed to press ahead with the attack on Ukraine, despite the problems he has recently faced in battle front. But the Russian president is also facing concerns expressed by India and China regarding the protracted conflict.

"I know that today's era is not one of war," Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi told the Russian leader during a meeting on Friday in Uzbekistan. "We have discussed this with you on the phone several times, that democracy and dialogue affect the whole world," he added.

And in Uzbekistan, the day before, Mr. Putin admitted that China had questions and concerns about the war in Ukraine, but he did not talk about what it was about. However, Mr Putin thanked Chinese President Xi Jinping for what he called his government's "balanced position" on the conflict.

The hasty withdrawal of Russian troops this month from parts of the northeastern region they seized early in the war, as well as the rare public expression of reservations by his key allies, underscore the challenges Mr. Putin faces in all the fronts. Both China and India have maintained strong ties with Russia as well as a neutral position in relation to the war in Ukraine.

In a statement Mr Xi expressed support for Russia's "core interests", but also said he was seeking to work together (with Moscow) to "inject stability" into world affairs. Mr Modi said he also wanted to discuss "how we can move forward on the path of peace", adding that the biggest concerns facing the world are problems related to food security, fuel and chemical fertilizers.

"We have to find a way out and you have to contribute to that too," Mr Modi said in what was seen as a rare public rebuke of the Russian president.

The Indian prime minister's comments cast a shadow over the expectations of Mr. Putin, who had seen the high-level meeting as an opportunity to strengthen his status and as proof that he was not so isolated internationally.
