Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday met Brazilian President Inacio Lula da Silva in Japan’s Hiroshima on the sidelines of the G7 summit, where most advanced economies from all over the world were present. They held productive and wide-ranging talks during which they discussed ways to further deepen the bilateral strategic partnership, particularly in sectors such as defence production, trade, and renewable energy, the Ministry of External Affairs stated. Both the leaders also exchanged views and perspectives on regional developments and cooperation in multilateral platforms. This was the first meeting between the two leaders.

PM Modi took to Twitter and wrote, “India and Brazil will keep working together to deepen trade ties and diversify their cooperation in sectors like agriculture, defence and more."

Official Spokesperson at the Ministry of External Affairs, India, Arindam Bagchi, in a Tweet, said, "Cementing bonds of friendship. PM Modi met President Lula of Brazil in Hiroshima, and discussed ways to further deepen the India-Brazil Strategic Partnership.”

Ministry of External Affairs, in an official statement, said the leaders noted that this year marked the 75th anniversary year of the establishment of diplomatic relations. 

The ministry further said, “They reviewed their Strategic Partnership and discussed ways to further deepen it, especially in sectors of defence production, trade, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, dairy and animal husbandry and bio-fuels and clean energy.”

Both leaders also emphasised the need to organise a high-level meeting of business leaders from both countries in the future.

After exchanging views on regional developments, both the leaders laid stress on the importance of continued cooperation in multilateral platforms and the long-standing need for reform of multilateral institutions.

Eventually, PM Modi looks forward to welcoming President Lula to India for the G-20 Summit in September this year, the statement informed.
