PM pitches new global parametres at G20

On the sidelines of the Summit, Modi met several world leaders, including his British counterpart Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, South Korean President Lee Jae-myung, Brazilian President Lula da Silva and several other world leaders on the sidelines of the G20 Summit and discussed issues of bilateral and mutual interests.
PM Modi also met his Japanese counterpart Sanae Takaichi on the sidelines of the G20 Summit and discussed bilateral cooperation in areas like innovation, defence and talent mobility. It was the first meeting between PM Modi and Takaichi after she assumed the leadership of her country in October. Modi also held discussions with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on cooperation in various areas, including trade, investment, mining, critical minerals, AI and food security.
The G20 Open Satellite Data Partnership proposed by PM Modi during the second session at the G20 Summit in Johannesburg suggests that satellite data of G20 space agencies would be made available to developing countries for agriculture, fisheries, and disaster management, among other activities.
In his address, Prime Minister Modi emphasised that natural disasters continue to pose a significant challenge to humanity, and this year, too, they have affected a substantial portion of the world’s population.
Modi told a gathering of world leaders that “resilience cannot be built in silos” and pitched for greater collaboration among the members of the influential grouping. “The G20 should promote such comprehensive strategies which, by linking nutrition, public health, sustainable agriculture, and disaster preparedness, can build a stronger global security system,” he said.
