World suffers from shortage of trust: PM Modi to G7 leaders
Prime Minister Narendra Modi attended a G7 session focused on international partnerships and rebuilding global trust. He emphasized the need for the Global South to be treated as equal partners rather than aid recipients and held a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump.
Why it matters

With a message that trust was in short supply globally, Prime Minister Narendra Modi participated in a session with the Group of Seven (G7) countries and others on “Forging New Partnerships and Rebuilding International Solidarity”. In addition to the G7 and India, other partner countries – Brazil, Egypt, Kenya, South Korea – participated in these discussions along with the World Bank and African Development Bank.
