G7 Summit 2025 Live Updates: Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Calgary to attend the G7 Summit at Kananaskis, his first visit to Canada in a decade. He is set to discuss various topics of development, such as energy security, technology and innovation with world leaders.

PM Modi said he will discuss important global issues and emphasise the priorities of the Global South. The Kananaskis gathering on June 16-17 is the Prime Minister’s 6th consecutive participation in the G7 Summit.

The Indian Prime Minister is also expected to meet his Canadian counterpart, Mark Carney, on the sidelines of the high-profile summit. Carney extended an invite to Modi in an attempt to rebuild ties after India-Canada relations nosedived following ex-PM Justin Trudeau’s allegations on the killing of a Khalistani terrorist.

In the last few months, the security officials of India and Canada resumed contact and both sides were looking at the possibility of appointing new high commissioners.

Six of the G7 leaders – the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Canada and Japan – will be joined by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and NATO chief Mark Rutte to discuss Russia’s in Ukraine after US President Donald Trump’s early departure due to tensions in West Asia.
