‘Special’ summit: PM begins SA visit to attend G20 meet
Business Standard
|November 22, 2025
As Prime Minister Narendra Modi left New Delhi for Johannesburg on Friday morning to attend the G20 summit, he said South Africa has carried forward the outcomes from the previous summits, especially those held in New Delhi in 2023 and Rio de Janeiro in 2024. This year’s G20 theme is ‘solidarity, equality and sustainability’
PM said he was looking forward to "productive discussions” with world leaders on key global issues as he arrived in Johannesburg to attend the G20 Leaders’ Summit being hosted by South Africa.
The PM's statement comes even as the Donald Trump administration has slammed South Africa's G20 agenda. The US President has sent junior officials to attend it, even as he himself is boycotting it. Modi is scheduled to speak during all the three plenary sessions at the summit over the weekend.
