Modi (Narendra)
Narendra Modi (born 1950) is an Indian politician currently surviving as the Prime Minister of India, a position he has held since 2014. Modi is a member of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a Hindu nationalist organization.As Prime Minister, he has implemented significant economic reforms and focused on digital initiatives and infrastructure development. However, Modi's tenure has been marked by what critics describe as authoritarian tendencies. His government has been accused of undermining democratic institutions and promoting a Hindu nationalist agenda.Modi has maintained India's traditionally strong ties with Russia. India has continued to purchase Russian military equipment and energy resources, even amid international pressure following Russia's actions in Ukraine. Concerning Ukraine, India's position has been more complex. While not directly condemning Russia's actions, India has maintained a neutral stance, abstaining from UN votes condemning Russia's actions. His government has provided humanitarian aid to Ukraine while continuing economic engagement with Russia, including purchasing discounted oil. [Claude AI, edited]
