US President Biden leaves for India to attend G20 Summit

United States President Joe Biden departed for India on Thursday to attend the G20 Summit. To attend the 18th G20 Summit, which will be held on September 9 and 10 at the cutting-edge Bharat Mandapam Convention Centre at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi, Biden boarded Air Force 1 from Andrews Air Force Base. From the beginning of Friday, Biden has a packed schedule for the three days.

After departing from the US, he will arrive in Ramstein, Germany, on Friday for a brief stop-over and will arrive in New Delhi the same day.  The US President is scheduled to participate in a bilateral meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the same day, according to a White House press release.

On Saturday, Biden will participate in an official arrival and handshake with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The US President will then participate in the G20 Leaders’ Summit Session 1: “One Earth”.

Later in the day, he is slated to take part in the G20 Leaders’ Summit Session 2: “One Family” of the G20. Biden will also participate in a Partnership for Global Infrastructure and Investment event. His day will wrap with a dinner and cultural program with G20 Leaders.
On Sunday, the US President will visit the Raj Ghat Memorial along with other G20 Leaders.

Biden will then travel from New Delhi to Hanoi, Vietnam.  There, he will participate in a welcome ceremony hosted by General Secretary Nguyễn Phú Trọng of the Communist Party of Vietnam. Biden will participate in a meeting with General Secretary Nguyễn Phú Trọng of the Communist Party of Vietnam.

The US President and General Secretary Nguyễn Phú Trọng of the Communist Party of Vietnam will deliver remarks, following which Biden will hold a press conference, the White House said.

India and the US have a strong relationship but after PM Modi’s visit to Washington, the ties between the two countries became more stronger. Recently, PM Modi reached the US for his first state visit where he gave a historical speech at the joint Congress and became the first Indian PM to address the Congress twice.

Besides the speech and the state dinner, PM Modi also signed several deals to strengthen the defence, IT and aerospace ties and made the relationship between the two countries stronger.

Since India chaired the G20, the US has shown its commitment towards making the presidency successful. Earlier on Wednesday, the White House official said that the US is committed to ensuring that India has a successful G20 this year.
