Modi In Canada: G7 Summit Begins Now

Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Canada Tuesday, commencing his participation in the G7 Summit being held in Kananaskis, Alberta. His arrival at Calgary International Airport signals a crucial moment for both Indian diplomacy and the broader global conversation at the summit. While India isn’t a G7 member, Modi’s presence as a guest underscores the increasing importance of nations like India in addressing pressing international issues – from economic stability and climate change to geopolitical challenges. This visit is particularly noteworthy given the current global landscape, and offers a platform for India to potentially shape the agenda and advocate for the interests of the Global South. The summit provides a valuable opportunity for bilateral meetings with key world leaders, potentially forging stronger alliances and addressing shared concerns. It remains to be seen what specific outcomes will emerge from these discussions, but Modi’s attendance clearly positions India as a significant player on the world stage.
