Narendra Modi invited for G-7 summit in U.S. by Trump
By MYBRANDBOOK
The U.S. President, Donald Trump has invited Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the next G-7 summit which will be hosted in U.S. Both the leaders had a discussion on the current tension which is going on at Line of Actual Control near Ladakh and the global pandemic.
“President Trump spoke about the U.S. Presidency of the Group of Seven, and conveyed his desire to expand the ambit of the grouping beyond the existing membership, to include other important countries including India. In this context he extended an invitation to Prime Minister Modi to attend the next G-7 Summit,” as per the press release.
As per the sources, India is trying to understand the gesture and will examine if the invite is aimed at making India a permanent part of the global high table at the G-7 or its redesigned shape as G-11.
India is expected to play a critical role in the global diplomatic scene as for next three years the country will serve the executive board of the World Health Organization which is a crucial responsibility because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
While the invite from President Trump is for the upcoming summit which has been postponed from June, sources indicated that they will argue for not just a change in G-7 but also at other multilateral platforms to reflect India's concerns. Modi had attended the G-7 summit at Biarritz in France last year after being invited by President Emmanuel Macron. The press release did not clarify if the G-11 will be launched in the upcoming summit for which President Trump has extended the invite.
U.S. President, earlier, described the G-7 as “outdated” which indicated that he wanted the inclusion of Russia, India, Australia, and South Korea in the group.
Significantly, despite India's claim about holding bilateral talks with China to reduce tension along the Line of Actual Control near Ladakh, Modi discussed the issue with Donald Trump. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh announced that a high level military meeting will be held by the Indian and the Chinese military delegations on June 6.
Rajnath Singh held discussion on security issues of mutual interest with his U.S. counterpart Mark Esper and assured him that India will find a bilateral solution to the ongoing border tension with China along the LAC.
