Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be visiting the United States of America from September 21 to 23, while additionally, he will also join the fourth Quad Leaders' Summit in Wilmington, Delaware, which is being hosted by US President Joe Biden on September 21. "In response to the US side request that India should host this year's Quad Summit, it was agreed that India would host the next Quad Summit in 2025.".
The leaders will review the progress of the Quad during the last one year and determine the agenda for the year ahead to assist the countries of the Indo-Pacific region in achieving their development goals and aspirations," the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) announced on Tuesday.
This would be, at the same time, the last meeting for Biden as he is not going to stand for a second term and for Japan's Prime Minister Fumio Kishida who is retiring. The Quad meeting, that PM Modi would attend along with Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, would thus be a farewell meeting for both Biden and Kishida. Tomorrow, Prime Minister Modi will be addressing the 'Summit of the Future' at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on 23 September. Its theme this time is 'Multilateral Solutions for a Better Tomorrow'. "A large number of global leaders are expected to participate in the Summit.".
It said the Prime Minister will hold bilateral meetings with several world leaders during the Summit, and discuss issues of mutual interest. The Summit of the Future will bring world leaders together to chart the course of the world's organization, accelerate efforts to meet our existing international commitments and take concrete steps to respond to emerging challenges and opportunities, said the UN. Leadership is expected to adopt what was called the 'Pact of the Future, a visionary document, including a Global Digital Compact that will address the dangers and opportunities of technology.".
It will be while in New York that PM Modi will address a gathering of the Indian community on September 22 and would be interacting with the CEOs of leading US-based companies to foster greater collaborations between the two countries in the cutting-edge areas of AI, quantum computing, semiconductors, and biotechnology.
More than 25,000 have registered their names for tickets to the diaspora event titled 'Modi and US, Progress Together,' which will be held in the New York suburb of Uniondale. "Prime Minister is also expected to interact with thought leaders and other stakeholders active in the India-US bilateral landscape," the MEA added.
