While condolences are appropriate, I wish our government would be more careful about aligning too closely with Russia given the Ukraine situation. We should maintain balanced relations.

Tragic incident. I remember the Mangalore air crash in 2010 - such accidents remind us how precious life is. Hope the investigation reveals the cause and prevents future tragedies.

So many Indians work in both UAE and Russia. Hope none of our compatriots were affected in this crash. The embassy should confirm this soon.
