No G20 meeting for Ukraine - Putin can visit without risk
Ukraine is not on the list of countries invited to the G20 meeting in India in September, writes Sky News.
Ukraine is not part of the association, but eight non-member countries have been invited by India, which, as the host country, has the right to decide.
Member country Russia is participating, and President Putin has opened up about attending himself. India has strong economic ties to Moscow and has continued to import Russian oil despite the invasion.
Ahead of the so-called Brics meeting in South Africa last summer, Putin risked arrest if he traveled there himself, as the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant. However, India is not a member of the ICC and thus does not risk being arrested for the war crimes he is accused of
