Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Italian counterpart Giorgia Meloni clicked a selfie on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Italy. On Friday, the Prime Minister arrived in Apulia, southern Italy, to attend the Outreach session of the G7 Summit.

During his visit, he held bilateral talks on a wide range of issues with world leaders. The Prime Minister held bilateral talks with Italian counterpart Giorgia Meloni during which the two leaders discussed defence and security cooperation and hoped for further enhancing the defence industrial collaboration.

Modi arrived in Italy at the invitation of Prime Minister Meloni. This was his first foreign trip after becoming prime minister for the third term earlier this month.

“​The two sides discussed bilateral defence and security cooperation and hoped for further enhancing the defence industrial collaboration,” said a statement issued by the Ministry of External Affairs, as quoted by PTI.

The two leaders welcomed the forthcoming visit of the Italian aircraft carrier ITS Cavour and training ship ITS Vespucci to India later this year.

PM Modi thanked the Italian Government for recognising the Indian Army’s contribution in Italian Campaign during WW-II and informed that New Delhi will be upgrading the Yashwant Ghadge Memorial at Montone in Italy. They noted with satisfaction the regular higher political dialogue and reviewed progress of the India-Italy Strategic Partnership.

The Italian PM congratulated Modi for his third consecutive term as Prime Minister. He thanked Meloni for the invitation to participate in G7 Outreach Summit and conveyed his appreciation for the successful conclusion of the Summit.

The G7 comprises the US, the UK, France, Italy, Germany, Canada and Japan. Italy is holding the current presidency of the G7 (Group of Seven) and is hosting the summit in that capacity.
