Did MEA say India backs Israel in Iran war, threaten Tehran? Viral video fact-checked

Recent claims suggesting that India’s Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has expressed support for Israel in a potential conflict with Iran have been fact-checked and found to be misleading. The MEA has consistently advocated for dialogue and diplomacy as essential tools for de-escalating tensions in the West Asia region. This stance aligns with India's long-standing foreign policy of non-alignment and an emphasis on peaceful conflict resolution. The viral video in question misinterprets remarks made by officials, leading to confusion about India's position in the ongoing tensions. As the situation in West Asia evolves, India continues to call for a balanced approach, promoting diplomatic efforts rather than military involvement. The Indian government seeks to maintain its relationships with both Israel and Iran, emphasizing the importance of stability and peace in the region.
