PM Modi Lands In Brazil To Attend G20 Summit, Shares Pics


PM Narendra Modi arrived in Brazil to attend the G20 Summit, which will begin on Monday. PM Modi arrived in the South American country on the second leg of his three-nation visit. Before coming to Brazil, he visited Nigeria where he was conferred with the country’s national award, the Grand Commander of the Order of the Niger (GCON). He is the second foreign dignitary after Queen Elizabeth II to receive the distinction.

Modi’s visit to Nigeria was the first trip to the West African country by an Indian prime minister after 17 years. PM Modi also held bilateral talks with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and interacted with the Indian community.

After landing in Brazil, PM Modi said in a post on his official X handle, “Landed in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to take part in the G20 Summit. I look forward to the summit deliberations and fruitful talks with various world leaders.” In Brazil, PM Modi will attend the 19th G20 Summit as a member of the Troika. India is part of the G20 Troika along with Brazil and South Africa.

Chinese President Xi Jinping and his US counterpart Joe Biden will also attend the summit on Monday and Tuesday.

PM Modi To Visit Guyana

In the third and final leg of his trip, Modi will visit Guyana from November 19 to 21 at the invitation of President Mohamed Irfaan Ali. It will be the first-ever visit of an Indian prime minister to Guyana in more than 50 years.

“This year, Brazil has built upon India’s legacy. I look forward to meaningful discussions in keeping with our vision of ‘One Earth, One Family, One Future’. I will also use the opportunity to exchange views on furthering bilateral cooperation with several other leaders,” Modi said before leaving on the three-nation tour on Saturday.

Induction of the 55-nation African Union as a permanent member of the G20 and managing to produce a leaders’ declaration overcoming deep divisions over the Ukraine conflict were seen as major milestones of India’s G20 presidency last year.
