It was wonderful meeting European Council President António Costa and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in Evian earlier today. At the start of this year, India was proud to host them for our Republic Day celebrations. This has been a great time for India-EU ties as we have concluded the Free Trade Agreement.
During our talks, we discussed how to further deepen economic linkages in the times to come. Our growing cooperation can play an important role in strengthening peace, stability and prosperity in today’s global environment.

At the G7 Summit in Evian, addressed the Outreach Session on ‘Reviving a Balanced, Shared and Sustainable Economic Growth for All.’ It is good that the French G7 Presidency has given importance to this topic.
The reality today is- when it comes to growth, the question should not be about GDP or trade numbers.
The real question is - Growth for whom, with whom and in what direction?

Today, I met with families in Haiti who have lost everything. Yet, they show remarkable courage & dignity.
Their resilience has moved me deeply.
These families are not asking for the world’s sympathy.
They are waiting for the world’s action.
