Prime Minister Narendra Modi touched down in the US on Saturday morning (US time), marking the start of a three-day visit packed with diplomatic engagements. Welcomed by a vibrant Indian community at Philadelphia International Airport, who greeted him with cultural dance performances, PM Modi’s trip is anticipated to strengthen India-US relations.
The visit’s highlight is a meeting with US President Joe Biden, taking place on the sidelines of the Quad summit, a gathering of the leaders of India, Japan, Australia, and the United States. This summit aims to address key global issues and foster cooperation across diverse fields.
Beyond the Quad summit, PM Modi is slated to hold bilateral meetings with other world leaders. Notably, he is also expected to meet with US presidential candidate Donald Trump, adding another layer of political intrigue to the visit, ahead of the US elections in November.
The visit is a testament to the growing strategic partnership between India and the US, with discussions expected to cover a wide range of issues, including trade, security, and climate change. PM Modi’s visit is being closely followed by global observers, with potential for significant outcomes on the world stage.
