A significant thaw in relations between India and Canada is underway, as evidenced by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s confirmed attendance at the G7 summit in Canada this mid-June. The news, announced separately by both Modi and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on June 6th, marks a turning point after a period of strained ties under the previous Canadian government.
In a social media post, Prime Minister Modi expressed his enthusiasm for the visit, stating, “As vibrant democracies bound by deep people-to-people ties, India and Canada will work together with renewed vigour, guided by mutual respect and shared interests.” He further revealed he’d received a call from Prime Minister Trudeau, thanking him for the invitation to the summit and expressing his eagerness to meet in person.
This visit promises to be pivotal in reshaping the India-Canada dynamic, signaling a renewed commitment to collaboration and strengthening the bond between these two important democracies. The G7 summit provides a valuable platform for high-level discussions and strategic partnerships.
