Indian Prime Minister embarks on the second phase of his five-day international tour, set to engage with global leaders at the high-profile summit

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has arrived in Brazil to attend the 19th G20 Leaders’ Summit, marking the second phase of his ongoing five-day tour across three countries. Modi’s visit follows his recent trip to Nigeria and comes ahead of crucial discussions with world leaders on global economic growth, international cooperation, and climate change.

The G20 summit in Brazil, one of the most significant global gatherings, will see leaders from the world’s largest economies discuss key issues impacting the international community. The summit will address a range of topics, including economic recovery post-pandemic, climate policies, and geopolitical challenges, with India set to play a prominent role in shaping discussions.

Prime Minister Modi is expected to hold bilateral talks with several world leaders, including Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, to strengthen ties between India and Brazil, with a focus on trade, technology, and climate cooperation. India, which currently holds the G20 presidency, has been a strong advocate for global cooperation on pressing issues like economic reform and sustainable development.

India’s presence at the summit underscores its growing influence on the global stage, particularly as it seeks to further its leadership role in global economic and climate discourse. During the summit, Modi is also anticipated to highlight India’s achievements in clean energy and sustainable development, areas where the country has been making significant strides.

Modi’s trip is part of a broader diplomatic push to engage with emerging economies and strengthen international alliances, particularly in the wake of shifting geopolitical dynamics. His visit to Brazil comes at a time when the G20 summit is likely to focus on bridging divides between nations on critical issues such as climate change, global trade, and security.
