ಮೇನ್ಸ್
GS2 (International Relations): India–Russia ties now include skilled labour mobility alongside trade, investment and energy. Russia's labour demand offers jobs for Indian workers, but worker safety, recruitment regulation and balancing ties with the West need attention. India's Ukraine ceasefire proposal shows its effort to stay a credible mediator; the way forward is protective labour agreements and continued dialogue with both Moscow and Kyiv.
