The video going viral in the name of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Ukraine is a video of his official visit to the US in 2023.

New Delhi (Viswas News). A video is going viral in the context of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent visit to Poland and Ukraine with a false claim that it is a video of his visit to Ukraine, where he publicly accepted the greetings of his supporters and met them at the airport amid the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine.

Vishvas News found this claim to be misleading in its investigation. This video of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is not related to his Ukraine visit, but is related to his old US visit. It is worth noting that Ukraine’s airspace is closed due to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Prime Minister Narendra Modi first went to Poland during his recent visit and then reached Ukraine by train from there.
