In a significant diplomatic engagement, Prime Minister Narendra Modi joined US President Joe Biden, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida for the Quad Summit in Wilmington, Delaware. The leaders reaffirmed their commitment to a free, open, and inclusive Indo-Pacific region while launching several new initiatives to bolster cooperation in various sectors.
Prime Minister Modi, addressing the summit, emphasized that the Quad is not against any particular nation but advocates for a rules-based international order, respect for sovereignty, and peaceful resolution of disputes. "Free, open, inclusive and prosperous Indo-Pacific is our priority," Modi stated, in what appeared to be a veiled reference to China's assertive actions in the region. He added, "Our message is clear - Quad is here to stay, to assist, to partner and to complement."
On the sidelines of the Quad Summit, Prime Minister Modi held bilateral talks with President Biden at the latter's residence. The meeting, which lasted over an hour, was described as "extremely fruitful" by Modi. The leaders discussed ways to further enhance bilateral cooperation and exchanged views on global and regional issues, including the Indo-Pacific region and beyond.''
Modi also addressed a gathering of over 13,000 Indian Americans at the Nassau Veterans Coliseum in New York on Sunday, outlining his vision for India’s future and celebrating the strong ties between India and the United States.
Meanwhile, President Biden, reflecting on the meeting, stated: “The United States’ partnership with India is stronger, closer, and more dynamic than any time in history. Prime Minister Modi, each time we sit down, I’m struck by our ability to find new areas of cooperation. Today was no different.”
