Apart from Modi, the heads of countries like the US, Britain have also come to the summit which Modi will visit. Modi has returned to France after visiting the UAE and Bahrain.

Modi's visit was informed by the PMO, India is not part of the G-7 countries but French President Emmanuel Macron personally invited Narendra Modi.

Modi had arrived to attend the summit considering the friendship between the heads of the two countries. The G7 countries include Britain, Canada, France, America, Germany, Italy, Japan. The heads of the seven countries had arrived to attend the summit.

There is a possibility that both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Donald Trump will have an interview during which Trump can talk to Modi on the Kashmir issue. Pakistan is increasing pressure on the US to communicate in this regard.

In addition, Trump himself talked about 370 abolition and Kashmir situation over the phone. This week, Donald Trump said in Washington that I will discuss Modi with the Kashmir issue. I will also talk about India-Pakistan relations at the G-7 Summit.

India has made it clear at the international level that the abolition of Article 370 was in the interest of the country and Kashmir and since this is an internal matter, no one can intervene. The same issue was discussed at the UN Security Council earlier in the day. However, at that time, India had already made its position clear on 370 points.
