Modi and Trump meet at G7 summit in France
The Group of Seven (G7) summit is being held from June 15‑17, 2026 in Évian‑les‑Bains, France. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to hold a bilateral meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump on the first evening of the summit, at 6:15 p.m. local time.
The talks are expected to focus on a range of strategic issues, including the ongoing Middle‑East crisis, energy‑security concerns such as oil‑transport safety, strengthening the Indo‑U.S. energy partnership, and new trade agreements. The meeting also comes after a recent incident in which three Indian personnel were killed during a U.S. military operation, adding a sensitive diplomatic dimension.
Analysts view the encounter as a key step in deepening India‑U.S. strategic ties and shaping the G7 agenda on topics like artificial‑intelligence governance, climate change, and global economic stability.
