Know what India said
In the emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council amid the Russia-Ukraine crisis, India said that the increasing tension on Ukraine's border with Russia is a matter of deep concern. These developments have the potential to undermine the peace and security of the region. We call on all parties to exercise restraint. We believe that this issue can be resolved only through diplomatic dialogue. The safety of citizens is essential. More than 20,000 Indian students and citizens live and study in different parts of Ukraine and border areas. The safety of Indians is our priority.

Ukraine's President said - Russia ruined peace talks
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russia of ruining peace talks and rejected any territorial concessions in an address to the nation in the early hours of Tuesday morning, Reuters news agency reported. Apart from this, Ukraine's Ambassador to the United Nations Sergei Kislitsya at the UNSC meeting said that we want peace, we are committed to a political and diplomatic agreement. We do not succumb to provocation.
America also reacted
At the UNSC meeting, the US said that Russia's apparent attack on Ukraine's territorial integrity and sovereignty was unwarranted. It is an attack on Ukraine's status as a member state of the United Nations. It violates the basic principles of international law.
