Ethnic conflict and murder grip India’s state of Manipur – BBC News

Published

on



The state of Manipur in north-east India has been rocked with ethnic violence, in a conflict marked by murder and sexual crimes against women.

The fighting between the majority Meitei and minority Kuki communities has left hundreds of people dead. Neighbours who lived peacefully together are now involved in a bloody conflict over issues including rights to land, jobs and political power.

The state is deeply divided and with claims that India’s government has been slow to step in, civilians are taking matters into their own hands.

Reeta Chakrabarti presents a BBC News at Ten special report by Yogita Limaye in Manipur.

    Here comes the biased BBC media “Majority” meiti? You meant to say indigenous Meiti living in the area for 2000 years. and foreigners new “kuki”coming in to the country trying to do ethnic cleansing of Hindus and divide India to take geopolitical advantage. Great work again BBC of your “unbiased” reporting. Here is the history and conflict in detail.

Ukraine war talks start now, President Trump says after call with President Putin | BBC News

Published

on



US President Donald Trump has said he had a “lengthy and highly productive” phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday in which the leaders agreed to begin negotiations to end the war in Ukraine.

Later, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he had spoken with Trump about a “lasting, reliable peace”.

The calls with the warring sides came as both Trump and his defence secretary said it was unlikely Ukraine would join Nato, which will come as a bitter disappointment to Kyiv.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Putin supported Trump’s idea that the time had come to work together.

Europe’s leaders tell Trump they must help decide Ukraine’s future | BBC News

Published

on



European powers including Germany, France and the UK have said they must be part of any negotiations on the fate of Ukraine.

It follows US President Donald Trump’s announcement that he’s agreed with Russia’s President Putin to begin talks to end the war in Ukraine.

Seven European nations and the European Commission issued a statement saying their shared objective “should be to put Ukraine in a position of strength” and provided with security guarantees to create “a just and lasting peace”. They said Europe and Ukraine must be involved in any negotiations.

President Trump’s announcement raised concerns in Europe and Ukraine that he would agree to Russian annexation of large parts of Ukraine’s territory now occupied by Russian forces. The administration has said it does not believe a return to the pre-war borders is realistic.

Ukraine’s President Zelensky said that no agreement could be reached without his country’s participation in negotiations.
