Washington: The United States of America (USA) on Friday (December 16) once again welcomed PM Narendra Modi's stand on the Ukraine dispute, calling for an end to all forms of violence and following the path of diplomacy. During a press conference, Principal Deputy Spokesperson of the US State Department Vedant Patel said, ''We accept PM Modi's word and welcome his comments. Other countries will take their own decision on engagement with Russia. We will continue to coordinate with our allies to minimize the effects of war.''
