In an address to Ghana's parliament on Thursday, visiting Prime Minister Narendra Modi affirmed India's solidarity with Africa and called for urgent reforms in global governance to reflect the aspirations of the Global South.
He highlighted India's commitment to a more inclusive world order, stressing Africa's growing role in shaping the global agenda. "We emphasized Africa's rightful place at the global high table," Modi said. "We are proud that the African Union became a permanent member of the G20 during our Presidency."
