Will the PM Modi Summit participate in Canada?
There was no confirmation as to whether PM Modi would visit Canada at the summit in the middle of diplomatic tension.
However, reports suggest that it is unlikely to travel to the summit to the North American country. The Canadian spokesman G7 did not confirm the Times of India (TOI) late on Sunday if the PM modi is invited.
Toi said on Monday that “any invitation of eleven o’clock is unlikely that India would consider logistics restrictions, probably the efforts of separatists to disrupt the visit” and tense bilage bonds.

Two years later, all eyes are on whether the new Canadian government, operated by Prime Minister Mark Carney, will expand the invitation of PM Modi to the summit G7. PM Modi and Carney committed themselves to improve bilateral bonds.

“However, Italy continues to be president of this G7 for the rest of this year and I look forward to working with Prime Minister Meloni and all my G7 partners about a wide range of questions we spoke about …” Trudeau said.
Trudeau’s statement came after he met PM modim on the edge of the G7 summit in Italy on Friday. The meeting held in southern Italy in Apulia was the first in the middle of tense diplomatic relations over pro-healistan extremism.
