PM Narendra Modi is set to attend the 52nd G7 Summit in Évian, France, scheduled for June 16-17. Currently in Slovakia, Modi will return to France today to join discussions with G7 leaders and representatives from partner nations on various key issues. Among his engagements, Modi will meet US President Donald Trump to discuss trade deals. Additionally, the Prime Minister will hold bilateral meetings with several world leaders during the summit.
The G7 Summit, hosted by France this year, will focus on geopolitical crises such as the Ukraine war, Iran-Israel tensions, and Middle Eastern security challenges. Other agenda items include global economic cooperation, artificial intelligence, and climate change. Leaders from the seven member countries—France, the US, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the UK—are expected to deliberate on these topics.
PM Modi's current visit to France and Slovakia marks his 100th foreign trip since assuming office 12 years ago. According to the PMO website, Modi has traveled to 78 countries during his tenure, with his first trip as Prime Minister being to Bhutan in June 2014. This ongoing trip is his 24th foreign visit during his third term.
India is not a member of the G7 but is often invited as a guest nation due to its significant global economic and strategic role. Modi has previously participated in G7 summits, starting with his first invitation in 2019.
