The US on Friday again welcomed PM Narendra Modi’s position on the Ukraine war and said other nations would make their own decision on engagement with Russia.

“We would take PM Modi at his word and welcome those comments,” said US State Department spokesperson Vedant Patel when asked how serious was PM Modi when he suggested at Samarkand to Russian President Putin to end the war. Asked if India had a role to play to stop the war, he said “any country that was interested in ending this war must do so in close partnership with Ukrainian partners”. The observations came hours after PM Modi spoke to Putin over phone.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
