PM Modi Leaves For US, To Participate In Quad Summit Hosted By Biden

PM Modi embarked on a 3-day visit to the US on Saturday. He will visit Delaware for Quad Summit and New York for UN Summit of the Future.

PM Narendra Modi left for a three-day visit to the United States to participate in the Quad Summit being hosted by President Joe Biden in his hometown Wilmington on September 21. PM Modi will also address the Summit of the Future at the UN General Assembly in New York on September 23, the Ministry of External Affairs has said.

"I look forward joining my colleagues President Biden, Prime Minister Albanese and Prime Minister Kishida for the Quad Summit. The forum has emerged as a key group of the like-minded countries to work for peace, progress and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific region. My meeting with President Biden will allow us to review and identify new pathways to further deepen India-US Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership for the benefit of our people and the global good," he said. 

This is PM Modi's maiden US visit after winning the Lok Sabha polls for the third consecutive term. During the visit, PM Modi will engage with the Indian diaspora and important American business leaders, the government has said. 

"The Summit of the Future is an opportunity for the global community to chart the road ahead for the betterment of humanity. I will share views of the one sixth of the humanity as their stakes in a peaceful and secure future are among the highest in the world," PM Modi said.

Modi will be in New York only on September 22 and 23. After addressing the Summit of the Future and the bilateral meetings, the Prime Minister will depart for India.  External Affairs Minister Jaishankar will take part in the UNGA General Debate and deliver India's national statement this year. He will also have other bilateral, plurilateral and cross-regional engagements in New York.

Besides Modi, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will also attend the summit. Notably, this will be the last summit for Biden and Kishida as the US President withdrew from the presidential race while the Japanese PM announced to step down as his party's premier.
