PM Modi And Giorgia Meloni Hold Talks On Sidelines Of G7 Summit

On Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had a bilateral meeting with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on the sidelines of the G7 Summit.

Ahead of his departure on Thursday, Prime Minister Modi remarked, “Prime Minister Meloni’s two visits to India last year were instrumental in infusing momentum and depth into our bilateral agenda”.

“We remain committed to consolidate the India-Italy strategic partnership, and bolster cooperation in the Indo-Pacific and the Mediterranean regions”, PM Modi added.

PM Modi arrived in Italy early Friday at the invitation of Prime Minister Meloni to attend the G7 Outreach summit. This is his first international trip since becoming prime minister for the third time earlier this month.

The G7 consists of the United States, the UK, France, Italy, Germany, Canada and Japan. Italy now holds the presidency of the G7 (Group of Seven) and is hosting the summit in that capacity.

Between 1997 and 2013, the bloc grew to become the G8, with the inclusion of Russia. However, Russia’s involvement was halted in 2014 following its annexation of Crimea.

The host nation that holds the chair invites representatives of several countries and international organizations to the summit, as it’s customary.

Besides India, Italy has invited leaders from 11 developing nations in Africa, South America, and the Indo-Pacific region to the summit.
